Yup, 2-3 degree's will give you a nice safety net

That's why I'm running. Just get a boost gauge and dyno it so you know your A/F ratios, just to be safe.

Hope your engine doesn't blow...

An fmu might be ok, but do the essentials to know your setup will be reliable.

Retard timing + dyno w/wbo2 or wbo2 logs.

FMU's in my mind suck. Get some 370cc's and a high pressure walbro and you will be fine with the SAFC2. Timming wise, retard to 20-21 degrees at WOT
