You will probably not notice much difference in power, but the heat on the motor will drop. For this reason, I usually recommend "low" timing for any setup.

You can think of "punch control" as a software wheely bar. Limits acceleration power. The best setting can usually by found by experimentation.
That's about what I had always figured. I read some things about hoe feigaos "like low timing" and neus run "better" on 10 deg than anything else. I suppose Feigaos "like low timing" because they run so hot.

I'll keep experimenting and see how it works out. I should should be using a lap timing system to really determine what's best.

Thanks!
