I asked around and everyone seems to think my setup is kind of dangerous. My question is how much timing do you get peak?

Running 15 psi, I see a timing peak of 24-26 degrees at 6k rpm, dropping to about 20 degrees by 7k.

If its not knocking, and its not lean, its fine. With a bigger turbo like yours, you might be able to trade timing for boost, run like 18-20 degrees of advance put dial in 4-5 more psi. On a smallish 14b you're probably best off with the standard 24 degrees of advance and keeping the boost down.

If you're using race gas, those limitations go out the window. You can run as much boost and timing as you want. biggrin.gif
