Standalone ecu programming

[slideways]

Hello chaps
Where is the best place to learn about ecu programming?
And to understand what the figures that are put into each map actually mean and what effect they have and so on.
I have bought books in the hope that I would get a basic understanding but most of it doesn't explain in detail.
So over to you guys

Thanks

Thanks for the response guys,
I have a dta p8 pro all wired in to a twin turbo Tvr chimaera, I know computers pretty well and am getting round the laptop connection bugs at the moment, i had he car mapped professionally and it ran really rich to the point where i got in one morning and it just wouldnt start , plugs fouled so changed them, still wouldnt start.
So I checked and reset the throttle stops and idle screw got it ticking over lovely but only when fully warmed up.
When i checked the start fueling map the figures in there seemed completely different to sample maps provided by dta, There were also lots of fields in other maps that weren't filled in and some with rediculously high numbers that couldn't possiblely be right, which has led me here I want to learn more

I'm already on that forum just throwing my net wide to gather as much info as possible.
Im running tps with map compensation, without an idle valve
