Default High boost low compression guys.. answer this survey

I'm getting ready to drop in a new motor (with forged boost pistons and all the other goodies) and turn up the boost. I wanted to see what type of tune most of you high boost guys are running. Please respond with whatever info you can provide. I'm specifically looking for what type of timing and A/F you are running. Please include race vs pump gas info if you have it.

I know there is no magic #s, but I was hoping that this might reveal some general trends.

Piston dish(cc's):
Static compression:
FI method/compressor size:
Max psi:
Redline:
A/F at peak TQ:
Timing at peak TQ:
