    What you change depends on where you're starting from
    and where you want to go.

    A stock(ish) vehicle may not need airflow (MAF, VE) to be
    touched at all. I would look at some of the timing and fuel
    behaviors that dog the trucks, like over-enthusiastic burst
    knock retard and delayed power enrichment. Copy what you
    see on cars of similar compression ratio, as a first stab.

    The best thing you can do if you want to be a good tuner,
    is learning to log the right things and understand what that
    is telling you. Otherwise you're a blind man with a shotgun
    and that always ends well.
