These cars aren't like your Chevy 350 where you can simply adjust the distributor. If you want to make adjustments to the timing or fuel curves of any modern car, you need access to software that will let you change those values in the DME (German speak for ECU- Engine Control Unit).

Being practical, there's really no way for you to change anything. You can buy different maps from various tuners, and there are plenty of threads here to read more on that topic.

I suppose the better question is, why would you want to change the timing?
