Total Timing= start at 10, ramp in to 20, then plateau @ 23-24 max at wot around 4000 rpm. This of course varies alot and thats why you need a dyno to see what gets closer to MBT without knock.
Line pressure= depends if you have a shift kit/ built tranny.
Torque Management= Get rid of all torque management besides TCS.
