So fuel filter didnt help at all? At least it's knew and clean, you may also have a blocked cat if your running one or are you running a dump pipe? Depending how old the cat is,
But if its just like an msd or something it's just a booster really,
Aslong as it still retains the distributor and leads its nothing really different
15 degrees is advanced i didn't do it tho previous owner did.
Stock on mine was 10 I believe
Also you wouldn't need a tacho to tell 45kms in second is about 3000
You would notice it e heaps sluggish down low then really pick up
My previous car had retarded if ignition timing was really crappy down low but it went for it at 3250 Ish
Timing belt was a tooth off and was running at 7 degrees
Fixed it to stock 10 then advanced jr to 14
And you could really tell it picked up quite a lot down low.
You would put your foot down from rolling off the line and it would big down jerk not really go anywhere then once it hit 3400 it would just throw you back hard and go.
So maybe your ignition timing is off or your belts a few teeth off?
Blocked cat if you have one?
I don't have any experience with a turbo so I'm I'm only throwing things I know from my car.
But check your timing. That's easy to do.
