I'm only using my timing tuner for Nitrous retard, window switch & nitrous delay. But it is my understanding that those are your base adjustments and you have to pull timing to compensate. Since I don't use the <3k Rpm & >3K Rpm advance & retard settings it doesn't affect me.
But I think that you have to compensate for what you dial in on your base timing. If you are running +3 base & want to pull 4deg compared to a stock tune you would actually have to dial in -7 deg of timing on the spray. That's the way that I understand it. But your best bet is to call Ramchargers and get the really right answer from them.
Man I wish that there were this many Timing Tuner threads going on when I was in the market for one.
