I run 24/78 on my 8.5 with a similar front straight. Timing in the ESC &/or on the can is purely a personal feel. I used to run a tekin rs pro & LRP combo. I didn't like the feel of adding boost on the ESC, so I ran 3 dots (out of 4) end bell timing. Now I'm running a sp reventon r & sp v3 8.5 & prefer adding timing on the ESC & 5* on the end bell. You'll have to experiment & see what feels good with your setup. Just make sure to check you temps often as you add power.
