36-38 is for F.E. I have recommended no more than 27 total NA on a boosted engine with any real boost.
You might get away with that on a full electronic timing grid set-up but why??

You wouldn't but we do. We've been running at 36 degrees with 42 to 49lbs of boost now for 7+ year's and have NEVER burnt up a thing in it.
As for why we run this much ....... Because that's where this motor is happy.
Every motor is different so to try and make it sound like I don't have a clue maybe a tick unfair. I asked the OP a simple question as to what the initial timing was and jumped on from him and you. It was a simple question that does have relevance to the conversation (IMO). I comment very little on the board now I remember why. But hey what do we know , You fast guys carry on then

Here is a pic of our timing map just for reference.
