stage 6 pvl question

[otteboys]

Just got a stage 6 pvl, anyone know what the green wire is used for. Also wondering what to set the timing at, I've got a stage 6 70 with 85mm rod.

See Below

3.6 mm BTDC if the green wire is left off
3.2mm BTDC if the green wire is grounded

If you are running a Mach1 pipe, Nate McCoy did some testing that indicated the Mach 1 lost performance a bit as it got hot. Perhaps the green wire grounded and set to 3.2 would be a good place to start in that case.

We ran 3.6 with green wire off for three years and motor aleays ran very strong

5. Ignition Timing
Pay especial attention to the ignition timing as incorrect timing may
lead to power loss or damage to the engine! We recommend using
the Stage6 R/T inner rotor ignition (Part no.: S6-4514000). It has been
developed specifically for this cylinder and helps to achieve maximum
power.
The adjustments necessary can be found in the instructions of the
Stage6 R/T inner rotor ignition; the R/T 70 cc cylinder requires the following
two additional ignition adjustments:
6. Dimensional Stability
In order to ensure consistent quality standards, all cylinders are subject
to quality checks. During these checks, cylinders are measured and reworked
under computer control. As it is not possible to work without any
tolerances, it is decided after production how deep the inner cylinder
head cap will have to be inserted. According to our experience, this is
the best way to ensure that cylinders can be provided within the same
port timing area. The number engraved on the inner cap represents
the insertion depth (e.g. /02 = 2.2 mm, /03 = 2.3 mm, /04 = 2.4 mm).
Over the years, both we and our customers have placed increasing
demands on engine components. This is one of the major reasons why
in this area no expense and effort has been spared to develop a cylinder
that sets new standards for power and quality. Still one shouldn’t
forget that these engine parts are made to bring home victories, not
simply to look good.
At this point we’d also like to mention that microscopic shrinkage cavities
may occasionally occur below the front transfer ports. However,
these cavities do not impair function, longevity or power in any way.

By grounding the green wire is that whole a different ignition curve? Does the timing automatically retard in the upper rpms regardless if the green wire is grounded or not. I just want to be sure I understand how these things work.
