Default diablo sport tuner tips

i just got my diablo tuner the other day. i did the performance tune, then adjusted the shift pressure and shift points, and some other lil adjustments. but my question is what does spark advance do and how should it be adjusted? Just by doing the base tune and adjusting some little things it woke my car up alot

It is not suggested that you adjust spark or WOT fuel unless you have the knowledge.....

its an auto, and is it better to set the torque modulation to 100% or stock? And i bumped up the shift pressure a little bit so i could get a little better shifting feel. it made it feel stronger during each shift.
