What do you mean by calibrate ignition? There is no distributor to calibrate. To tune ignition you must be on a dyno to see the power gains and losses.

it's best you don't change anything, if you don't know, what you are doing there.

sorry, but if i read your question about tuning ignition and fuel: please, go to a tuner, let him/her tune it.

best regards
