Start off with -25 for timing and 60-100 fuel. Retard more timing or add fuel from there to see if you can build more boost. If it doesn't, bump the RPM launch limit. One car that I did needed -40 timing and 450 more fuel to build 14psi boost on a S372 turbo

Dont worry about the air/fuel when you are on the two step. You should already be tuned in that area when you are not on the two step. You cant really measure air/fuel on the two step because of the odd fire with the added fuel.

Good info, that's a lot more fuel than I thought.

10 psi is a good amount to launch with. I launch my 2500LBS Civic on a S372 turbo and 25" tire with only 8-9psi at 8300RPM.
