You'd likely see a real performance increase by dropping that and following a similar shape to stock.
You don't tune a timing map by increasing advance until it knocks. It just doesn't work that way. Not unless the engine is a piece of crap and is severely knock limited, but the M20 is not.
But, you'll never dyno it or prove any real evidence, so I'm just wasting my breath..
