DO i need more timing adjustment?

I currently am running a 125 shot on a plate system and if i swap the jets out and go up to a 200 shot do i have to adjust the timing some more and if so what should i start with?

Thanks

Yes you should. How much timing do you have pulled now? What mods are done to the car?

General Rule of thumb is 2 degrees per 50 hp you're adding. So a 200 shot you should pull 8* total.

What symptoms would show you need to pull more timing or can get away with less?

Symptoms - damaged plug or broke piston

Read the plugs. Always pull a little extra timing when unsure. Get the fuel correct then slowly bring timing in while closely monitoring frest plugs.
