I was wondering how much timing everyone is currently running.

Also, how much timing does everyone recommend to run on stock internals using 91 octane.

Thanks.

How hot was your car getting to only have 2 degrees of timing?

Actually it was spark blowout that stopped me at 2 degrees. On the dyno the car made 385 rwhp 370 rwtq at 5800rpms and 2 degrees timing. When i got home I changed plugs and the car pulled all the way to 6800rpms no problem. Sucks that I didn't do that on the dyno.

The overheating issue is a recent development. Once thats fixed then I'm going back for a retune. Should make 450 ish. Was only seeing 8.5 psi at 5800rpms, so maybe I'm seeing 9.5-10 at 6800rpms? IDK. There is much more left in this car.
