I would tune the MAF table or the MAP table so that the LTFTs are between 0 and -5%. Doing this will assure that the PCM will not add extra fuel at WOT except from what is commanded in the related power enrichment fuel tables. Doing this and with the aid of a wide band O2 sensor, you can reliably acheive a desirable AFR at WOT.

Yes, in order to tune effectively, you must have a tuner, data logger, and a WB. In the lastest tuners, the datalogging comes along.
