Turning the top of the starwheel toward the engine just increase pre-boost fueling. It will increase acceleration and make more smoke if push the pedal hard.
Moving the plate forward or using another plate gives you more power under full throttle or heavy loads. It has no effect if you have a light foot or no load.
