Timing ? 730ECM and CM software...
After my 730swap I have done some scanning with CM software.
When I look at the scanresults the timing is 25 deg. in high rpm/load but when I look in TC It should be 28 deg in that area.
Whats the correct one?

If you dialed in 28 at a specific load/RPM then it should be 28 at that specific load/RPM unless other factors are coming into play. First - you need to make sure that you are looking at the exact load/RPM. Double check - tripple check.
The 2 other major things that come come into play for part throttle operation are Octane Retard and knock retard (assuming Highway Mode is not implemented). If the ECM senses a lot of knock all the time then it will implement a long term reduction in spark using the octane retard routines. Consider zeroing out all the octane retard as a check. Also double check that you aren't getting any knock .... and, as previously stated, make sure you are looking at the correct areas when comparing data to TC.
