Default Timing Map comparisons

This is the timing map I am currently running in a 1.6 track car. The boost is limited to 7PSI due to fuel limitations, so the % load we reach on this map is 74%.RPM is limied to 7000 for the same fuel limitations.
Wondering how it compares to other's Spark maps.

New guys who come across this thread, DO NOT just load one of these maps and go. You will blow your motor if you don't know exactly what you are doing.

I took a degree out in the 5200-5700 range in the 183 and 212 cells since then, since it would ping a little in 5th and 6th up there. Our maps are decently close, though. You are running pump gas (CA91), right?

Yep, just pump bought CA 91 octane. Appreciate the comparison. How do you like the turbo you are using?

I love it. I tuned a 2560 a few weeks back and got to really get a feel for both cars. The 54 has MUCH better response, and for a track car I think it's the best turbo you can buy. The 60, however, kicks noticeably harder above 6k than the 54 does. The 54 is done pulling at about 6600 or so; the 60 tows into the rev limiter.
