Default Typical tuning with these mods

Search isn't working.
I have HPTuners and was wondering what I should tune with the mods I have.
It's a 2002 SS six speed conversion with 3.73 gears, I recently removed the a.i.r system, and it has a K&N filter, SLP lid, SLP Power-Flo exhaust (same as factory Dual/Dual). With those mods I just swapped the A4 bin file with an M6 file, deleted cags, a.i.r., gear ratio calibration, and TM delete.
I recently swapped to pacesetter long tube headers with an ORY, deleted the codes for the rear O2's.
It runs fine but what typically could be done to make it run better?

There is a file in the HPT repository with almost the same mods, but it has so much timing it goes off the scale with KR. So I'm basically running a stock M6 tune with some codes deleted. What should I play around with to optimize the performance of this car?

tq management, fan settings, fuel & spark...those are the main ones to look at on a bolt on car.

Thanks, I did the TM and fans. Timing does seem low and fuel does seem rich. I guess headers make it run a little richer?
