Thread: "Tuned for X deg adv at WOT"...what's that mean?

I'll use the picture Parker posted:

Where he has his WOT values circled, would we consider him to be running 13* or 16*? Or, do we say he's running 15*, since that is close to the average timing at WOT?

Right that is what he was asking. And the answer would be the highest.


Typically the number you see will be the number you are running. But there are other factors that you have to consider that advance the timing. Like i said I was seeing right at 22* of timing and looking at the table you don't see any numbers higher than 19.

If you zero these out, then you get whats in the table that was pictured earlier, but if they aren't(which I'd put money yours aren't) then you get the 22* commanded when it only says 16...... With the add tables, stock timing goes up to 20* in some instances

Yup that's right.
