If you have a good timing light with a dial that you can dial back and read advance, that will tell you where and at what rpm your timing curve is. To monitor air fuel ratio get an air fuel meter that uses an oxygen sensor so you can get an acurate reading under boost. I use an Innovate Motorsports hand held meter and just have it sitting on the console. a great forum for turbo stuff is The Turbo Forums. Thats where I learned all the particulars on how to do mine. I am currently running a 468 big block with a 4l80e trans and 3.08 gears. The thing I love about turbos is you can have a stock sounding(idling) car that cruises around real nice, starts AND shuts off when hot, and gets decent mileage, provided you keep your foot out of it. There's no bottle to run empty and no whine, (blower drive belt) so its stealthy. But when you want the power, just floor it and hang on, I'm talking blowing the tires off at 70 mph and drifting sideways at full power. Dont want that much power, simply adjust your wastegate setting and cut the boost back.
