what the timing people run for our cars when running 15 psi or more or is it stock (just wanna make sure )

prob depends on which head you have
I run 16 degrees on a G head at 20 psi.

Way too many variables. Best thing is to set it at 12 deg and do a run. If no knock, then advance 2 deg, if go faster with all other stuff being equal, IE 60ft times etc, and no knock, go another 2 deg. Stop when you hear knock or slow down.

nope read my post, more advanced lowers EGT's, thats why its a balancing act between EGT's and knock. Mostly on lower octane fuels like pump gas. So basically you run the timing till it pings, then back off a little, watch EGT's if there too high you will have to lower the boost cause thats the best you can do on that octane fuel
thats why a 2 step w/ timing retard will spool in neutral(or clutch in for a 5spd). Retarding the timing moves some of the combustion energy to the exhaust mani to spool the turbo.
