then it is advanced a little bit.
its best to keep the timing right on the marks for rotaries just to be safe, but some people advance it a little bit and run high test gas and are alright. i wouldnt take the risk of a motor over that little power though

I doubt it's a problem with an N/A. you don't want to with a turbo. just run higer octane and enjoy the better top end power and gas millage that it will get you from it. just make sure you don't hear any pingin

Darn! Sounded retarded to me. Oh well. I'd put it where the fsm says. Oh. Lead or Trail? Either way put it on fsm setting. Or do as you darn well please. Advanced? Hmmmmmm So, lets see, if I put it at 20degrees ADC, I've advanced it even more?
