Default Timing???'s

Does anyone have any Idea of the timing of a drag comp? How about the timing of the smarty? The reason I ask is I've been trying some different combo's and found if I run the smarty on fueling and timing with the drag comp in ez mode which also has timing correct? I get the best fuel mileage. I know everyone says not to run the smarty on timing levels with a timing box but it works great for me and all I have to do is flip the switch on the tst pm3 for playing. This should be fine as long as I'm not towing heavy shouldn't it? Thanks guy's

High Timing is rough on Head Gaskets , It also raises your Piston Temps! To high of timing can lead to serious problems! I wouldnt recomend it in any way shape or form, But yes it will net better MPG results! It would be some what "Okay" as long as your not running injectors and a big charger, For sure no water or Nitrous! But its still not a good idea!
