I agree that timing has a good bit to do with power production but at this point I'm not too concerned with it. Open hemispherical combustion chambers (like open chambered 103s) tend to not tolerate much spark advance so I don't think there is a lot of room for improvement. For now I'm just concerned with control over fuel, given that the ignition trim resistor give a small bit of control over the spark map.
