Default Anyone Street Tuning IGNITION???

Well, I've been running AEM EMS for about 4 months now,
and I have the fuel tuned in almost perfectly.

I feel that I'm missing some power since I'm retarding 1 degree per lb
of boost.

Just wondering if anyone has tuned ignition timing on the street?

well, if you have a EGT you could have a starting point.
if you have a wideband O2 and the EGT i guess there might be some people who really know how to do it, but i do think it can be done on the street without problem

EDIT: this thread help you identify the EGT https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=429565

As long as you have your distributor and aem program syncronized you can bump it up to .5 degree retard per pound of boost. No one tunes ignition maps on the street. You cannot make accurate judgement of your changes, its always left for the dyno.
