After probably 1000 passes, several dozen head gaskets, using everything from 93 pump to Q16 and three different engines I have a pretty good handle where to put the timing. Of course you can go higher, head gaskets and pistons are cheap..

Turbo car tends to create a lot of backpressure at high RPM, that backpressure is almost like EGR and cools/dilutes the intake charge preventing detonation (and reducing power of course). While its true there is less chance of detonation at higher rpm, dont ever think there isnt enough time for detonation on a forced induction car..

I've always been told that one was leaving alot on the table with a ProCharger by not adding alot more timing down low...we tried it after we got the forged motor in and actually picked up a good bit down low...

damn, I love your car. I was looking in to buying it when you had it up for sale. If youever want to sell it, shoot me a PM. This sucker is flying. I love small cube set ups. Keep up the good work.
