24-28* total, on 91 octane California "ping juice". Wish we had 93 or E85 close by.

Really depends on your setup. I run 23 degrees peak torque and 26 near peak horsepower. I spent some time on a mustang dyno getting it dialed in.

Right about the same. Shell or Chevron 93... Liked 29* the best. No pinging higher as others have stated, but no more power either.

I'm at 29 WOT on 93 octane. Went as high as 31 during tuning with no issues but didn't seem to do any better there
