Default What to look for in EFILive?

I got EFILiveV6 and have been doing a lot of scanning and reviewing the logs. I usually export to a csv cause it's easier to read. I keep an eye on KR..

Aside from KR, what else should I be looking for without a wide band guage? All I see is my commanded A/F which isn't usefull... or is it?

I don't have Edit... yet. I figured I get familiar with EFILive for a little while then get Edit.. However, without a wide band input like the LM-1 how can I make a decision as to what tuning I need... if any.

I have zero KR, about avg 28deg of timing with an occosional peak at 42 degrees (normal?)..

I've read the EFILive manual from cover to cover.. I think I'll do it again tomorrow.. (long commute to work gives me reading time.)

Don't I need a LM-1 before Edit? How else will I know what the heck I'm doing with Edit without one?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

BTW.... EFILive V6

Okay... I've been thinking about this.. I seem to recall a post a long time ago about using your actual O2 voltages instead of a wide band.. Now I know it wasn't 100% accurate but it was a close enough starting point..

Is there an O2 voltage to a/f ratio table?
Would I first need to record my O2 voltages while on a dyno with wide band to get MY baseline "O2 voltage to a/f ratio" mathematical ratio for my car because every car may be different? Then would I be able to come up with a ratio for say every XmV of O2 voltage = X parts of fuel ?

How do you guys tune without a wide band?
