crank angle sensor bullshit!

[jay123]

on a couple of threads ive heard people talking about getting extra ponnie by moving the crank angle sensor a couple of mill closer. when i sold a harmonic balancer for a vr to one of the work shops i asked the mecanic about this...

botom line is it wont result in more agressive timing as that is all controled electronicly, and that it will to is increase the likleyhood of the sensor rubbing, and recking it!

thats my understanding anyway. anyone know any different?
