i just need a idea on what my timing should be set at. also what is the max boost psi i can run. right now my timing is at stock 12 degrees. fuel psi is at 25psi because i have a aeromotive fpr that raises psi with boost. i have all bolt on upgrades 2.5 intercooler pipes. driftmotion intercooler. 255 fuel pump. 550s. full 3" exaust. wide band. 57/58 precision turbo and lex afm with screw backed out all of the way. i pretty much know how to use the safc but if you guys can give me a good starting point with timing. max boost and lo and hi throttle % on the safc i can tune from there thanks.

Stock timing is 10*.

And you want to set your fuel psi at 35 with vac off. The stock fpr raises 1:1 with boost the same as the aeromotive.

i thought you set it at 10* with jumper wire and when you remove it it will be at 12* also when i put my fuel psi at 35 with the vac off it will run too lean and when i add fuel with the safc it will hit fuel cut before i can get it even close to 12.8 on the wideband

You set it to 10 with the jumper and leave it there. The Ecu will control timing after than.

When you add fuel pressure it should be richer. I would look into why it would be going lean rather than trying to raise the boost.

So what would be the max boost psi that i could tune with with that fuel psi to keep it from going lean and what would be a good lo and hi throttle % to go with
