Lock distributer for turbo?

I am wonder what all has to be done in order to accomplish this. I am undergoing a turbo swap soon, and I dont want my distributer to advance under boost. Anyone who knows how to do this, or has information on it post it up. Thanks ahead,

Jonathan

Robert @ rotaryshack does this frequently for all his setups. I'm not sure how he does it, but if you email him from his site, he'll probably let you know how to do it or sell you one he's already done. It worked on IoTus's car.

Pretty much, it just prevents detonation... definitely something you need!!

Thanks guys that will do,... I wish I could just take my brothers. He has the 12a turbo distibutor,... when setting the timing you notice how it retards itself. He was lucky to find it though,...
