Default smarty+edge juice.best setting's

i usaly run my smarty on sw#8 and my edge on stock or if i wanna feel a lil power i set the edge up. my questions are could i set the smarty on a low setting with added timing +the edge on? and what would happen if i ran the smarty on sw#9 timing added and the edge all the way up? would i blow something up? thanks

I know too much timing is bad news! Low power, smokey, too early of injection causing pre-combustion will lead to hammering of you bottom end. I am not sure how much the Smarty will add, and how much the Edge will add, and how much is too much.

I imagine #3 would be safe, but much higher would be running a risk. Especially when you charge air starts getting hotter.

There is a TB4 cummins in my profile that was in a jeep,I told him not to put all that timing into it but he thought I was a stuiped pilot.It has a blow hole now.
