Does anyone know of a shop that is willing to perform the 2 degree ignition advance in NoVa?

I understand this is a simple performance upgrade the Armada.

Found out about it over at Club Armada. By advancing the ignition 2 degrees it improves off line performance and rolling acceleration and allowing you to continue to use 87 octane fuel.

Here are the steps to take:

Many of us have had good results advancing the initial timing by 2 degrees. Listed below is the procedure to make the advance, using the Consult 2. You will need a Nissan dealer to do this. You should print out the procedure and take it with you to the dealer.

Warm up vehicle.On CONSULT 2 screen choose ENGINEAfter communication with Convertor will display a bunch of choices.Press WORK SUPPORTSee more choices, press TARGET IGN TIMINGPress UP x2 for 2 degrees, correction which you should be able to see.Press UPDATE.Now press BACKOn the menu screen find IDLE AIR VOL LEARN.Press, and perform to correct your idle since you just raised it 75rpm with timing advance.

Try calling you local dealers. I've heard of many Titan owners going to dealers to have this done.
