Scott,
   Thanks for the data.  Unfortunately, there's not much I can do with it other than see what you've experienced.  I did find it interesting to note the linear relationship between MAP and spark advance, which pretty much confirms how I believed it to be.  It would also substantiate Brent's claim that timing advances aren't really needed in a turbocharged engine, as they're based upon MAP decreasing with altitude in a normally aspirated engine.  When George says varying timing can be of benefit in a turbocharged engine, I know he's using internal cylinder pressure (ICP) as his barometer, not MAP and that's what makes the PRISM system so unique.
  I'm not an engineer and I don't have a test stand to do any serious evaluation of any of this stuff.  All I know is that my engine runs great with my LSE and since installing it over two years ago, it's worked flawlessly.  I can't say that for my magneto, but I won't be parting with it anytime soon just the same.
