alright....here is the deal. you can bump the timing up as high as you want. the higher you put it, the more horsepower you will get out of your tuner. what you want to make sure of tho, is that you dont hear your engine knocking/pinging/or making any other strange noises that it DID NOT make before the adjustments. so if you hear it ping...then back off the timing by one degree and try it again. if it still pings, then keep backing off 1 degree untill it doesnt, then you will be at your peak point.

now something else you HAVE TO take into considertaion when doing this. the higher you put your timing, the higher your octane of gas needs to be.

your a/f ratio, i wouldnt mess with it too much, b/c you dont have any way of knowing what it is at right now. thats more to be messed with when you get a dyno tune.

here is how i run mine....brenspeed 93 octane tune....i fill up on 93 and add 2 gallons of 101 ocatane (the sell both at the shell i go to), then on the tuner i have mine turned as high as it will go on global spark, and as high as it will go all thru out the rpm range, and my car does not knock or ping what-so-ever, and runs like a bat out of hell.

SCT....Diablo....Sniper....steeda timing adjuster, etc....

it doesnt matter what the brand is, its all done the same way....spark advance, is spark advance.

the whole key is just making sure you dont hear any NEW noises AFTER you have made the adjustments.... ie: knocking, pinging, any other ab-normal noises. like stated earlier, if you hear it ping, back off one degree, and then try again. if it still pings, keep backing off 1 degree untill there is no knock/ping.

like i said with mine its advanced all the way up, on both global settings and thru out the rpm band....now i HAVE NOT tried the timing all the way up on just strait 93. it might ping, who knows. like i said i usually add 2-3gallons of 101 octane to my 93, which allows me to buimp my timing even higher (than brents performance tune already has), which makes more horsepower...and i have never heard her ping once.
