Edge Settings?

I have an edge evo and have custom tuned it. My question is, should I add more fuel at WOT since I have a K&N CAI and Bassani aftercat SIDO? The default setting is 1.50 which is 50% more fuel but that could be used on a totally stock truck. In southeast texas its about 86F for the high and between 70-90% humidity on an average day.
Currently my settings are on the power level 3 and the thing runs awesome. I've added 5.00 on the timing because of my CAI and exhaust. It runs like a bat outta down yonder. I have the shifting set at all the highest levels of firmness and standard driving to the max. I have smoked more than my fair share of dodges and chebys. I love this truck. Any info would be appreciated.

To me the timing seems to be set a tad high. From what I read in the manual it says 1 degree for every 2 octane changes ( i.e. 91 too 93 +1 degree). Now on the WOT fuel I run around 1.6 to 1.7 .

I agree. I would be listening for pinging for sure unless you are running 100 octane.

I guess that I will pull out about 2 and set it for +3 on the timing. I'm also going to raise the fuel at wot to 1.7. It hasn't detonated yet but while pulling my utility trailer today I heard some valve clatter. And just fyi I know the difference.
