Default Timing for Supercharger Application?

What is the ideal setting for timing with a V2SQ, 10 psi, and aftercooled?18 degrees advance?I know f/a is should set between 11.5 and 12.0 no more than 12.0 at wo throttle. i will be having my brother install blower and aftercooler and driving car 25 miles to dyno shop so they can tune it.

honestly man it really depends on how safe you want the tune, and what kind of temeratures you experience. Its all up to the tuner to figure out what's best, but 10* total spark advance is stock. I have seen people go to about 25* total spark advance, so it all depends.

I agree with you but need a safe degree of timing to get the car to the dyno shop? It seems then 16-18 i would bea good starting pointas iwill not take it into boost on the way there and just might use my AAA plus towing instead of me driving it there.

uh... you want to lose about a degree of timing per pound of boost. I pulled 9 degrees of timing out the stock table.
