Thanks for the details MX-5. Are you saying then that the resistor really doesn't do anything, except advance the timing slightly? Are there any problems that can occur from the resistor?
MX-5 can tell you more about any problems, but basically that little resister fools the computer into thinking the air coming in is cooler than it actually is, so the computer advances the timing and throws more fuel into the mixture. It does this when your cruising around, racing the nearest ricer and even when standing still idling.
