Setting base timing
I know this is a really dumb question, but I couldn't find the answer anywhere. I am tuning my car and need to set the base timing. What should it be @ 1k rpm's? Don't flame me for this question either, but I am supposed to connect the light to the #1 (Coil wire on the front cylinder)?

I was going to set the timing at idle first. Using aem it is under configure>ecu>set ignition. Pretty sure it is set @ 4 degrees adv. I heard most cars are set around 10. Couldn't find anything for this car. Would it be in the service manual?

the ign values for idle are closed loop I believe as the ignition timing varies to control idle.
Here are the stock equivilent maps for the F20c.

I should of made them a little larger. but i think you can just make make them out.

Ah ok..im FI (supercharged 11psi), that map i pictured above is for a bog standard NA s2000. my ignition timing goes down to 21 degree's of advance at about 9000rpm. so about 5-6 degree's more retard than NA.
