Default Thrust Angle for Sig CAP 231EX?

I recently acquired a SIG CAP231EX that belonged to a friend. He was an accomplished IMAC flyer, and had done a lot of experimenting with upthrust and side thrust for torque roll purposes. Presently it has 1.5 deg upthrust, and nearly 4 deg right thrust with a Saito 180 and 17x8 APC.

For routine flying, what would be a "normal" starting point for this plane? I could not find it in the instruction manual and I'm not sure I trust the firewall angle.

Thanks
