how about this timing table?

what im trying to figure out is how much room for improvement do i have in my timing. not getting much response in my other thread so i firgured if i post mine; people can tell me if im too conservative or shud i stay where im at.
im currently getting 0 knock on the table below and im running on the stock turbo with e85.
have you guys who have tuned before, think i can get 3-4 degrees more timing out of my setup with ease?

Find MBT and you can see how far you can go, then dial it back a couple degrees.

You need to use Virtual Dyno software for a DIY MBT tune.

As stated, DO NOT use knock as an indicator of what your setup can handle. E85 tuning is entirely different than standard gasoline tuning.

boost or logs of a pull would also be helpful

I'm ready to give my 2 cents, but need to know what load cells your hitting. Load a log or tell us more info (loads and boost levels) so we can help.
