Default FP3 advanced tuning question..

Hello..
I have a 2016 FLHTRU with the FP3 installed, I also have a 2004 Ultra with a Thundermax installed.
so far I have liked both of them, and they are different. being new to the FP3 I still havn't figured out the advanced part yet.
There is one thing on the FP3 I am want to change and not sure where it is, or if its even an option.
On the Tmax I can map out how many times the engine turns over before it sparks (compression release delay) .. Factory is 2 revolutions, I set it to 0, so
on the Ultra I hit the start buttons it fires right up.. no turnover.. now on the RGU it does the 2 full rotations and starts, and its very irritating.
reminds me of a shitty car that cant start... rrrrr....rrrrrrrr. vrooom...
has anyone found a setting in the FP3 that we can set the compression release delay and get the push/start effect?
thank you...

All I've found is where to turn the compression release off or back on.

Makes your motor turn over hard. I had to turn mine off when I installed the EZ start cams from S&S.
