What Timing Should I Be Running?

Hi,

I wanted to know what people are running as the total timing on their turbo cars. Also, what kind of timing are most running under boost?

I'm running a total of 38* of timming but under boost i'm pulling 25* from the 38* to = about 13* of total timing under full boost (14-17psi) and I think I still hear knock. I'm pretty sure I'm running a 8.5:1 compression and running 94Oct. gas. Is this a normal amount of timing to be running with the above conditions? AFR is mid 12's though. Running out of fuel. New injectors should be in next week, but so I know.... What kind of timing map are you guys running?

Cheers.
