Cobb Gauge Question

I got my Cobb on today. Currently running Mountune "Optimized" tune (for upgraded RMM, Intake, BOV, Intercooler and 93 octane).

I'm a complete tuning (mechanical?) dummy... which gauges would you recommend I run/monitor and why? And what parameters? Read: what should I be looking for so I don't eff things up driving this car like it's stolen?

Thanks for your help!

Since you just got it, I'd monitor all 4 cylinders' ignition correction. You don't want negative corrections, and if you get them, it's probably crappy gas (was for me, anyway).

Boost and oil temp are 2 gauges you otherwise don't have. Always good to know. Don't get too boosty on a cold engine.

Once you know your ignition correction is good, you don't really need to monitor much.

Guys on YT recommend various things. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=accessport+what+to+monitor
