Put in the time that you think you will swim. If you sandbag and put in too slow a time you will swim with the slower swimmers therefore your time may not be as fast as you can swim. It is surprising how fast you can swim against the faster swimmers. It is called competitive swimming and you will not be competitive if you can win your heat easily.
If you put in a faster time then you can swim you may swim faster but is that what you should do, I dopn't think you should.
