Default 1.25* retard/lb boost b16a

I just made a base map and street tuned it. Im running 1.25* linear retard per pound boost. I want conservative timing and my question is is this considered conservative on a stock b16a with 10.2 comp ratio. I plan on getting some dyno time within the next month or so.

What engine management are you using ?
Make sure your distributor is synced to your engine management or your timing values will be useless.

You should be fine until you throw the car on the dyno.

Something to keep in mind is that the boost retard is based upon the timing values in the last "nonboost" column. so if you have an all motor tune with lots of timing and you just add boost tools and use the retard feature you may still be running too much timing because the calculations started from a very advanced point. Make sense??
