OK,
First Installment...Knowledge
I suggest the following books:
Maximum Boost: Designing and Testing Turbocharging Systems
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/083...733405?ie=UTF8
How to Tune and Modify Engine Management Systems
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/076...733405?ie=UTF8
also use the HPTuners forum for support:
http://www.hptuners.com/forum/
For those of you who wonder about COT and Piston Protection see here:

Lastly I'm going to cover Fuel Injectors (I'm going to be trying a few different way to tune for em in the next few weeks), Spark Tables, VE and SD (when I get some time to actually SD Tune), Boost Management, PE adder, etc. The only thing I may not be able to cover at first is the TQ based style of the 06 models.

Read these books. They explain a lot of basic engine theories and go into detail about sensors and how certain oem systems work. They will greatly expand your knowledge of the boosed internal combustion engine.
