TST with adjustable timing
For those of you who use the adjustable timing on the TST. How do you use it? What settings do you use? What is the down side to to much timing? I usually leave it on auto, but I was wondering what the benifits would be to set it to manual. Would mileage increase more the higher you went? Sorry for all the questions Im just not sure what is to much and if anyone has any results.

I took mine to manual set at 15 for fuel milage power set at 1or2 tq 0 seems to help a littel. Now if your running two boxs that do timing thats were it helps.When i ran CL and the TST same time you would get the rattel on top thats why i got the timing mod.Hope this helps.

I run auto twelve, manual 15 and 18 give me some serious rattle at idle. I just figure auto twelve would be safe, but I keep my mp8 off 80% of the time, if I was goin to the track I might bump it down to auto 9 and see what that does as the mp8 does a little indirect timeing.
With a device that adds timin stacked with the tst ie. the smarty, you may want to try auto 6 or even 3

If I load a Smarty program with timing I set the TST to 3* or 6* AUTO timing. This seems to work with out too much rattle. If I load a Smarty program with "no timing" I set the TST to 12* or 15* AUTO which also seems to work. I have not had enough testing time to see which route is better or if more or less timing is better. A lot of options that need a lot of 1/4 mile runs to document. But it is definitely nice to have the option of adjustable timing. I have ran 12.7s 1/4s with both senarious and various setting combos, just need more track time to figure out which is best on my configuration.
BTW when you throw in the multiple programs on the TST the matrix of options goes up considerably .
