How to compensate for higher compression ratio in the R-tek 2.0's base timing map?

I'm using the Rtek 2.0 with 9.4:1 compression rotors instead of the 8.5:1 rotors the Rtek's timing map was designed for. I'm looking for suggestions on how to modify the base timing map to compensate for the higher compression ratio?
Any ideas?

The Rtek 2.0 seems to have real timing numbers to work with even though its only modifying the stock timing map. So I would think that just pulling the timing like on any other standalone and less boost would do the trick.


Try posting this in the standalone forums, like haltech or powerfc. Definately a lot more people w/ tuning knowledge. Try to find one of those "timing" threads that shows how they do it for high hp. I think they usually adjust the timing by comparing it to the EGT temp

If you have a beta, that usually means you should be in a feedback loop with the vendor.

Call them about where to set the CAS.
