0......Retard is immediate.
1..............0.2 second (retard build time)
2..............0.4 second
3..............0.6 second
4..............0.8 second
5..............1.0 second
6.............2.0 seconds

It can also be done this way too
Retard Rate settings when using MAP sensor input:
Position Rate
0...........0.2 degrees/psi
1...........0.4 degrees/psi
2...........0.5 degree/psi
3...........0.6 degree/psi
4...........0.8 degree/psi
5...........1.0 degree/psi
6...........1.2 degree/psi
7...........1.4 degree/psi
8...........1.6 degree/psi
9...........1.8 degree/psi
A...........2.0 degree/psi
B...........2.2 degree/psi
C...........2.4 degree/psi
D...........2.6 degree/psi
E...........2.8 degree/psi
F...........3.0 degree/psi
Im running a relatively low timing up top 24.5 total up top compared to some others in the 30s. I guess I still have to retard the timing 6 degrees for a 150shot? That doesnt sound right to me? So thats why im asking.
Thanks in advance!
this is the one that i am using • Retard build time settings 8 – F. Retard and build timer will reset any time the activation signal is removed and re-applied.
Position Rate
8..............0.2 second (retard build time)
9..............0.4 second
A..............0.6 second
B.............0 .8 second
C..............1.0 second
D.............2.0 seconds
E.............2.5 seconds
F.............3.0 seconds
And its hooked up so as soon as it starts to spray the retard is activated and pulled 3 degrees at .3 seconds in and by .6 it has 6 degrees pulled. My tuner said that you don't want just a sudden timing degree drop off going from persay 30* to 24* in just a snap you want it to be gradual. So should i maybe put it to the .4 retard rate ? ?

If thats what your tuner want you to do then i'd go off his reccomendations. Me personally i've never had a problem with taken out the whole amount of timing right on the hit.
