I've heard if u get the dual timing gears that it keeps it more acurate and it adds a sweet whine to your engine. Any one have any experience with these? Any input is appreciated thank you! is it easy to do? thanks, ERic

The noise would make the computer think the engine was knocking and would retard the spark timing to compensate. That would hurt performance, but it isn't something that would trigger a check engine light. A regular double roller chain is probably just as accurate, although it will stretch and lose some accuracy over time.
