Default timing marks on b20a5

my brother bought a 90 prelude si. which mark on the flywheel do you use to put it tdc.. it has a + sign and - sign on the flywheel. when we put it on the + sign it runs like it is out of time.....

when we set the timing to the + sign it ran like crap. now the + sign is about an inch and a half above the alignment mark. now it runs like a champ. any one else had this problem?
