Another thing I found interesting about the TFS setup .. it recommends 32-36 degrees of total timing for best power results.

32* total would be a 16* base timing.

I used to run 42* total timing all the time.

The only reason I don't run it much anymore is because I'm afraid I would forget to switch the tune over before using the nitrous. . .

42* + N2O =

What upgrades did you have to support running 42 deg.?

I burned up several plugs by forgetting to swap to the n2o tune

Well, different motors act different ways to timing. I have seen 302s that didn't even like 14* base timing; mine doesn't seem to care (imagine that

).

On a side note, you really couldn't run 42* total without some type of tuning software. If you tried to do that using your distributor, you would end up with a base timing of 26* and that would likely wreak havoc on everything else but WOT.

I think you should try it.

Why? So he could still beat you with melted plugs? That would be insult to injury wouldn't it?

Not to mention the fact that he could probably still switch tires and drive that damn coupe home.
