Default What timing to run?

Well I dont have the money right now for hondata. Im planning on running an 8.1 Fmu inline pump and 310's. How much timing should i run to be safe? Boosting around 7 pounds.

about .5 degrees for every pound of boost is a safe setup

I would suggest at least running a BTM untill you can get a new ECU or somthing, you gotta be damn careful with your timing man, my engine got destroyed after only 1 week of driving with the turbo on because the timing was off and I was detonating.

Go fast and be safe,
