Default Pulling Timing with HPtuners

I will be purchasing HPtuners over the winter and I would like to use it next year to pull timing out of my car when I spray. I was looking at the demo mode and was wondering what is the best table to use to pull a few degrees to run the bottle and then put that timing back in when im done.

If I remember correctly the fast system on a friends T/A has a TPS vs. RPM table for timing and this worked very well for pulling a few degrees from like 90% to 100% on the TPS. Since your only spraying at WOT anyways. Then we would just put the timing back in when we were not spraying. So what I'm asking does HPTuners have something similar to this. Any help would be appriciated. Thanks!

Do I need to adjust both of these tables the same amount?

If you're running a MAF no because you just use the high octane table.

If you're tuned in SD, then you need to do it for the low octane table because that's what it defaults to when the MAF is missing.

Unless he used a custom OS - then it likely uses the high/low octane tables just like it would if it was stock.

Unless you are running a Custom Operating System speed density tune, then the high octane and low octane work as intended even without a MAF...
