Your base file will have to come from your PCM. You can screw up your computer if you try using someone else's. Just do a read on your PCM, and save it as something you will remember, then do all your changes after that. You'll also need a data logger of some type, so you know where to correct. You should monitor the following on a few long drives, and record them. Then export it to an excel spreadsheet so you can see what your engine is doing when:
LTfuel trims (both B1 and B2)
O2 sensors (B1S1 and B2S1)
Throttle position
RPM
Knock Retard
Ignition timing advance

For starters, you would like the O2s at or around .890 at WOT, LT fuel trims as close to 0 as possible at partial throttle, and timing advance as high as possible at WOT without any KR. 28 degrees is a good number to start with.

Just my .02 worth. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
