Fixing to time my truck, what to?

Well I just made an appointment with a guy to do the timing on my truck. He come highly reccomended from the local diesel turbo and injector shop.

My plate is about 3/4 forward, I will post a pic of it soon... Exhaust is stock, for a little bit longer while I decide how I want to run it. (I want it in front of the wheel, but I don't want it that loud again...) I tow alot, probally 75% of the time. But usually only around 5-6k. As it is now my EGTs are just fine.

I am thinking I want to bump it to 15.5* any suggestions from yall with more experience here?

15*-16 would be good for your needs until you add more fuel.

First time I've seen one like that. If it works good you should make up your own number for it. maybe a 50 or a 75.

I'll take that as a compliment I have actually referred to it as a 50 before!

I wanted a 100, but tried to keep it from being so much down low, just tried to get rid of the midrange defueling, and smooth out the delivery. It is working well so far, more power, and not killing the clutch. And those were my two goals with it.

It was meant as a compliment.
