Its too complex for A-B-A testing?
Can you not undo timing changes almost as easy as flipping a switch on these modern computer controlled engines?

I know exactly how you could change your timing at the flip of a switch on most vehicles. MSD sells ignition accessories for almost every vehicle made, where you make or unmake a switch connection and that instantly changes the timing for a nitrous hit.
