Explain please why 18 degrees of timing at 18 psi of boost is a "Low Number".
I know of several engines with E-85 fuel and twice the boost that makes excellent power at 18 degrees of total timing at that much higher boost.
Aggressive timing at full boost will always cost you a lot of money and engine parts over time.
