give it as much advance as you can until it ping under load then just back it up a bit make sure you use premium fuel they usually set up the timing to run on low octane fuel so use premium and as much timing and you will see a big difference in performance (low end mid range and top end) also better fuel economy just make sure there is no pinging under load at operating temp(engine warmed up)
