Spark advance under boost question?

What kind of spark advance should I be seeing with my blower setup @ wide open throttle.

Its not a good idea to have knock.. knock is a fail safe for avoiding major troubles when the engine is not in either optimum condition or not properly tuned...

So if there is knock most likely one day it will break...
