Just make sure it is set to whatever your base timing is in your ignition maps. If your base timing is set to 15 at idle then set your distributor there and make changes to your ignition timing through uberdata.

Eh? Pardon not tryin to jack or anything, but is this done through the programming, or is this done manually?

The distributor part? How do you set your distributor?

you can do it either way. It's a lot easier to do it through a program by changing some numbers wrather then moving a wrench

Step 1: Sync the timing. Meaning like SOHC_MShue said if it's at 15 degree by the timing light set Uberdata's base timing (top left corner of the maps) to 15 degrees.

Step 2: Adjust only through Uberdata since it's just a lot easier. Keep timing in the vaccum areas stock and only when in boost do you want to start retarding timing. For better off boost performance you can advance timing in certain areas, read up on it though.

Step 3: Boost away on safe timing
