Actually Jake, If I remember right, Parish came to the same conclusion Chris did, More boost is better and safer then more timing. Chris's truck is a bit of a dyno queen, Last time I talked to him he had well over a 100 pulls on the dyno with it!

Now, when you add boost, your adding fuel too, so you have MORE fuel and air to burn in the power stroke, so with the proper timing, you will always make more power with more boost.

As for being a dyno queen. I ran for the first time in over a year tonight and went 11.90@113 with only 11psi and 2000'DA. Next week I'm going to shoot for 10's.

Yep! Damn Todd, Think of it like this... Timing only helps you burn the fuel and air you already have more efficiently. Too much timing will result in less power as now too much of the burn is happening BEFORE the piston goes over TDC and into the power stroke. It can also lead to to high of combustion pressure which will cause the fuel mix to explode instead of burn (detonation).
Now, when you add boost, your adding fuel too, so you have MORE fuel and air to burn in the power stroke, so with the proper timing, you will always make more power with more boost.
