Used to run 19 degrees on pump gas and 8psi. Now with 11psi on stock engine we run 13 degrees on pump gas and 18 degrees on 104 mix. It picked up 50rwhp on a mustang dyno by increasing 5 degrees of timing.

You gotta start low and slowly go up until you detect knock. Then back off until you have zero KR. Maybe start at 12 degrees.
