Crushing the ferrite resistor bead on the ECU logic board prevents the computer from severely retarding timing at launch, thus making the car much quicker off the line in mid-throttle situations.


It only effects 92's, I belive.

I have a couple questions about it too. Would it be worth doing even if I'm planning on doing the Ecutune stage 2 soon? How do you do an ecu crush? Is it something that you can do yourself or should it be done by a shop?
