so i shouldnt boost the Late model motor? 


34* of timing on box #1.....  and super high compression

I would. Think about it... high compression = power. Boost = power. Both = super power

ez question was ez

I'm running 30° in my Trans Am on pump gas





That's exactly right Jimmy.  The big power guys are running 14:1+ and race gas or 16:1 and methanol.

12.5 is not 13.

You are lucky.  If you take an N/A engine and boost it without drastically lowering compression it will need timing taken out of it for pump gas. 10-16° is about as far as I would push it in most cases.  You don't get a do over with that. Timing is more dependent on engine configuration than AFR.  That said, 1 bar of boost and 25°+ timing is not going to work out well on pump gas.



Most setups and tuners shoot for 11.0-12.0 for max reliability without sacrificing too much power.  Too rich can be bad as well.

You won't find anyone recommending 13.0 on a boosted setup unless someone is pushing for max power.  You need to go google your tuning knowledge again. 13.0 is target AFR for N/A WOT.

I have honda tuning experience, 200$ is a friends price. Most real tuners/companies charge 400+ on chrome. 500+ on other platforms. There is a reason most turbo hondas run like shit and are still super slow, it's because the got a 200$ tune. It's usually the equivalent of a mail ordered chip tune which carsandkush so madly seems to hate.

I also have experience with ls1 tuning and the prices are almost on par. Just because I can get an lsx tuned by my buddy chumma for 50$ doesn't mean it's the same price for everyone.
