Default Power Logger Results - Is my GN okay?

These results were at idle: I'm not really sure what exactly is important, so if you can shed some light on the results, please do. I understand what some of the values are, but not all such as IPS, AFR, LV8, Spark, EGT, BLM, Prog Idle and X-counts.

RPM 750
TPS 0.42v
IPS (Injector Power/(Duty))3.97m/s (2.4%)
WB AFR 7.35:1
MAF 4.9G/S
LV8 35G/c
Boost -29.5in
Spark 26.5 degrees
O2 0.400 v
Knock 0
ECM AFR 13.4:1
EGT 32 degrees
Prog Idle 725
Coolant 170.6
Intake Air 69.9
X-Counts 48
Advance 26.5
BLM 138 (this went up to 142 when I put it in gear and backed it out of the garage) All other values were 128

Based on these values at idle, is there anything I need to do to improve it? Is there anything else I need to look for? thanks

I got the case today. Worked perfect. Thanks, let me know how much I need to send you. I don't know what a wide band is. What does that value mean? I didn't drive it because it is raining cats and dogs here, but I will later if it dries up.

wideband is an add on sensor for your power logger
if you dont have one then dont worry about that reading...

All looks good.

WB= wide band
AFR= air fuel ratio

I also have a turbo tweak chip installed. With that in mind, do I need to change any of the settings? What is a 255 commander, 512 extender or 768 extender extreme, extender pro, extender extreme g chip?

if you are running a stock maf .. the ecm cant read any higher then 255 grams per second.

with the other chips and bigger maf " LS1 MAF" and translator it can read to 512 grams or 768 <----- " this ones is when running larger then 50# injectors"

I just drove it around. For knock I got 4 cts. Also, it seems to monitor everything but boost. The boost parameter never moves. Any thoughts?

At 3006 RPM, the TPS was 1.44, Wg% 65.9, MAF 133.8 LV8 235 IPW 21.36 IDC 53.7 O2 0.803

At 3100 RPM TPS 1.56, Wg% 65.9 MAF 153.1 LV8 255 Knock Retard 1.4, IPW 24.11, IDC 63.9 02 0.729

The highest the knock retard went was 2.1

The O2 volts seem to fluctuate a lot not sure if this is normal. The fluctuations don't seem to be related to anything else. It flucuates almost like a heart rhythm. I don't think this is normal, but I may be wrong. At one point the voltage dropped as low as 0.039 volts. Is this bad and potentially harmful to the car? Any thoughts?

You probably have a leak somewhere..BLM's at 138 may mean a vac. or exhaust leak... The PL wont read boost or vacuum unless you tap the green MAP line and hook it to the aux input of the PL. As far as the WB reading of 7.35, I think if you have nothing connected to that spot on the Aux Input it will default to 7.35(same for the 32* reading on EGT). o2 mv should be flucuating as you drive and will drop off quite a bit when you let off the gas..

I know the exhaust is leaking on the right/passenger side at the back of the catalytic converter
