Timing..

6000rpm, you may want 11 degrees of timing (to get to MBT again for that RPM/Load), and 7000rpm you may want 12 degrees of timing (to get to MBT again for that RPM/Load).

Yeah I get that, but I thought overall though you still want timing to climb with RPMs, as too much retard can be bad.

Capinoy, i meant your base timing map is it for a 1g or 2g. Assuming you are on corn run the 1g map and work off of that.
