Default Bipes Setting w/Intercooler

Built my own IC setup this weekend and fab/installed it. So far it's been great. Anyways, I was curious what kind of base timing you all with intercoolers are running? I'm currently setup on 12btc and bipes retarts 6 degrees to bring it back down to 6btc under load. I know you can be more agressive with an intercooler to set it at 8 or even 10btc under load!?!? Also think bumping base to 14btc is too agressive?

Any thoughs and advice would be great!

I'm running 6psi, RX-7 intercooler, 14* base timing and I am pulling 4 degrees with the Bipes starting at 3000 rpms, which I believe is the most agressive setting. I can't remember what additional timing I am pulling for temperature, but I am pulling some for temp though. No pinging, and I am about to install my O2 Clamp, and some colder plugs [Some 7E's] I have in the glove compartment. I already have a manual boost controller installed. I hope to then up the boost to about 8psi with the above set-up, because the O2 clamp should solve the only fuel issue I had [A little lean spike between 3000 and 4000 rpms] that kept me from turning up the boost last time I was at the dyno.
