Timing is like adding endbell timing. It is applied to the motor throughout the RPM band. I don't like using it except for stock motors. If you add timing the motor temps will increase, you might get some more top speed but it always makes the motor feel softer in the bottom. If you think you need a little more then start at the first setting and watch your motor temps.
If you want more top speed. I would increase your turbo, up one adjustment at a time until you are reaching a good top speed. You can also make the turbo come on harder if you lower the timing interval. Or if you want it to start a little sooner you can lower the turbo delay to .05. or to Off. I only use the Off setting on small tracks. Try this and see if it is better.
1.Timing 0
2.Turbo Delay .1 If you want more push sooner decrease this to .05
3.Turbo Timing 40 .Change this first, check temps. This will give you more top speed. If everything else feels alright but you are still not fast enough just keep increasing this until you get to the speed you need.
4.Turbo Interval 4
5.Punch 2
6.PWM 64
7.Drag Brake 0 This really depends on how you like to drive
8.Initial Brake 4
9.Brake Frequency 1.1

If you are still not fast enough try these settings Adding a little timing may help push the 10.5 harder. I would definitely keep an eye on temps though.
1.Timing 12
2.Turbo Delay .1
3.Turbo Timing 40 .
4.Turbo Interval 4
5.Punch 2
6.PWM 64
7.Drag Brake 0 This really depends on how you like to drive
8.Initial Brake 4
9.Brake Frequency 1.1
