The way I've worked with tuners in the past is you add boost until you're out of fuel, then back of 1-2 psi. Then add timing until you see timing pull/knock, and pull back 1-2 degrees. That's probably oversimplifying it, but it's the idea.

You should still be able to add a bunch of timing if you're using the same octane fuel (or better). But if you're mixing e85, you'll have to see if running less boost and more timing actually makes more power than higher boost and less timing.
