Default I need some help from people who know how to tune

ok i just finished my turbo and i love it my only problem is i still need to work out all the bugs and get my a/f ratio right. im running an smc+ and dsm 450cc injectors. i have my smc close but it still has some fine tuning left.
i went and bought the tech edge wb kit v1.5 and then bought palm to use for data loging. should be under $330 for the wb kit and it was $50 for the palm. and im going to buy an ntk wb o2 off ebay for $165 when i get some more money.

ok to my ? i bought all this stuff because the closest dyno with a/f capabilities is atleast 2 hrs away and from what i hear possaly even 4hrs away. so i bought all this so i could tune and not have to drive that far.

did i waste my money because im going to need a dyno anyway? or can i street tune and increas hp and gas milage? my other reason for buying was so i could tune other cars, because like i said no one in my area has this stuff so after practice i was going to help friends with their projects..

let me know what u think. thanks

PS i also have an msd btm but its not hooked up yet becuase im only running 6psi and i wanted to get my a/f right before i get in to timming.

The dyno is the best way to tune. Butt Dyno won't get you near what you could achieve.

I'd hook up the BTM, and make a date with the dyno and take it easy(run rich) till I got there. There's too much at stake and you cannot replace a dyno with that stuff.
