you will often find that the engine actually becomes more prone to detonation.
A rather good discussion on this phenomenon took place somewhat recently. See posts 15 and 22 here: Engine management parameters... - MX-5 Miata Forum

We could really use a transcript of the important parts of that thread included at the end of our FAQ sticky.
I had a dream last week that I went to Joe Perez's house for guidance with my Miata and when I found him he had a long thin beard and was wearing a robe like some sage or oracle. No lie.

well all is done now. and i am running .037 shaved and a stock HG with a .020 shim and then another stock HG and all is good. so that makes it like .002 bigger of a gap. now i just ordered the turbo kit from BEGI YAY!!
all is good cept for right when i am leaving idle and pulling away it bogs a tiny bit. still playing with it but i cant get it right i am adjusting the IAC and the idle screw with it jumped GND and TEN
