Max Timing for idle??LT1

Ok my setup is in sig. but am wanting some opinions on maximum or best timing , in idle , without surging and poor idle . Just trying to get best idle and fuel economy.

I think stock is 20, I'm running 22 right now without a problem, it could probably handle more. I have a cam though so mine might be a touch different. I'm really not sure with yours being turboed etc...

yeah that is about where mine is at now..i think i had added a degree or two when i first started playing with it.The way i look at is the timing in idle should be no different than a n/a car.might be a little different with a supercharger depending on the head unit and such.but anyways anybody else have any input on this?
