Razor,
I posted this question to the Full Throttle tech board to verify a debate we were having with the Spark control on the MAF Trans Plus, which from the spark control point of view works the same way as the Spark Trans....
Anyway, the ECM doesn't see the resulting Spark Timing since the device is installed in between the ECM and the CCCI (module) and hence can't pass the resulting timing into the data stream....
So I guess the "believe it is happening" would be the choice, in my opinion.......
