I have a million and one questions, Hp tuners...

will someone help me get started? I have read through several hundred threads and can't find a good starting point. What should I start tuning? I have messed with my transmission shifts and stuff, but what else can I start tuning to get max performance out of my car? My idle is fine, so I guess I start tuning my Long Term Fuel Trims? Is it better to do this with/without the MAF connected? Thanks in advance.

Maybe someone will be able to steer you in the right direction though.

How do I find those out? I know that's a dumb question, but it tell me per RPM. Do you want to know how much a/f total? Same for timing??

No way to answer without knowing more about your car. But if it's stock or nearly so, there is very little if any benefit you can expect from "tuning".
