A 20 PSI moderate tune would be nice for you. 300 across the board is a little more pep than stock but isn't too harsh on your motor and trans. Definitely a noticeable difference compared to stock, you'd enjoy it. ZZP or Trifecta, Term, few others tune.

Ah I have no clue, I'm not a tuner myself or have never even fooled around with HPT. I'd dig through the forums and the internet. Maybe ask a few guys around here and see what you come up with. Good luck

primary spark advance tables, and PE enrichment ratio's are probably the two easiest you can modify.

ecaulk is correct. look at overbooster's lnf thread. there are plenty of how tos for the lnf

and dont fool the pe value to a see desired afr without properly tuning airflow. and dont adjust spark advance without first getting the airflow in line as well. they are the easy to change, but not safe to change until you understand whats going on.
