    I think he's asking what the timing should be for that setup not how to do it.

    You should be able to use 11.5, that motor should handle 6s no problem if it's the 158x kv?
    You can also spin bigger props. You should be able to get 120 ish km/h any day....

    Thanks for your help, Cranked upm the timing to 11.5 and its a rocket. When i got the boat from Rob Mckenna Team FFRB, he set up the timing to 2.

    Being y wind you could even go up to 15. Although timing change doesn't make any huge difference in speed... You may gain 1 or 2 mph but nothing hugely noticeable
