tuning a bolt on car

I have a 94 z28 with the bolt ons listed in my sig, plus 1.6 rr and 3.73 gears. I have data master and tuner cat, but havent done much with them yet. Is there any thing in perticular i should play with to start off that would be beneficial to a bolt on car? Fuel pressure, timing curves, etc. Thanks Prorac1

Well set it up for the right gears so everything is correct (rpm, mph, od).

You could increase the timing a bit in the higher map settings. Of course the higher you go the better the gas you should run to reduce knock. Thats what hypertech does.
