How much timing do you guys run on your tbi 454s.

With the timing wire un hooked I have tried 4 6 and 8 degrees, and the power is much better at 8deg. The problem is that even set at 4 deg (and wire re connected) it runs like it has too much advance at idle. With the timing wire hooked up it adds about 20 degrees at idle.
 
manuals call for 4, auto's 8....

Everything I am finding just says 4* Powerwise, it runs better at 8*, but it just idles so poorly.

I am thinking maybe that this is a wierd prom, maybe I should look for another.
 
actually i relooked at my tag, it say's 4 for manual & auto.....
