    stock exhaust system? stock thermo? stock gears? i always start with the small stuff ie fan settings, gear, rev/speed limiters/etc limiters/codes then move into fueling...whether running a cat or not I usually just delete COT & tune fueling via the PE tables alone...seems to be easier and more consistant...once fueling is done work on your spark to see what makes most power.

Timing trickers arent very useful if you have hptuners...I would plug in your iat & use the tables to adjust how much timing you'd like to have pulled if any. Also like i mentioned in an above post theres really no need to log dyn. cylinder air. Anything else?
