Default do i need a new tune?

Sorry another noob question.... I had a full bolt on frost tune done a little over a year ago. i just finished putting my wet plate kit on, along with it i purchased a timing tuner. i am only running a 100 shot for the rest of this season, will the timing tuner be enough to keep me safe until the winter? (all other things being equal...)

Thanks again for your help

If you have the proper plugs and fuel I'd pull 4 degrees then you should be fine

You def want to find out what your timing currently is before you change it.

Without knowing what you're currently at timing wise it's hard to tell you how much to pull. You're best bet would be to get with Frost and see what the timing is at. More than likely you will probably have to pull somewhere around 4-6* from the current tune, but this is all dependent on what the current timing is at.

so if i cant get a hold of steve, pulling 6 deg and working backwards should put me in the clear? or should i start with even more to be on the safe side?

I'd start by pulling 6* and go from there... I can't imagine they have your timing over 30* N/A.
