I believe 17-19 (total) gives the best HP gain. Any more and you start detonating and losing power. This is on premium btw. (92 octane)

No way does it come stock 15TDC. Cause when I checked mines it was retarded by like 13TDC. Great going Nissan!!!

It is possible that a lot of SR20's came from the "DEALER" with 13 degrees because they probally wanted them to pass a certain emmission level before they were sold. Just a thought not a fact.

15 degrees + or - 2 degrees so 13 min and 17 max but mine has 19 with 94 octane. according to the fsm.

QUOTE from Chiltons sr20de section:
1991 and later engines.....15 degrees BTDC.

Is the timing advanced another 15 degrees for more HP?
