Just wondering how far advanced people are setting their base timing with a B303?

I'd just start adding a couple of degrees at a time until you get the ping thing and then back off a little.

A better grade of gas will allow more spark but of course the expense is more as well, lol.

Where you can pick up a good bit of gain with spark adjustment is in the spark tables. You can change the rate of advance.

The killing of the spark tip in is also a very good kick in the pants kind of gain.

Gotta be able to get inside of the pcm to do that stuff however.
