I would say that timing adjustments are still very valid, regardless of whether they are controlled by a distributor or the car's ECU. Granted, all you need for timing adjustments with a distributor are a few basic tools, a timing gun, and maybe a friend. However, there are many open source tuning programs available that will allow you to adjust almost every aspect of your car's ECU, including timing advance.
