Question Learning to tune w/ a power vision

so, I started tinkering with my power vision. I have lowered my idle a little on the basic setting. How do you learn about going into the expert side of the settings and tinkering with things like spark advance, fuel settings and the such?

Not that I am going to do that but I would like to learn something more about it. Is there a book or manuel you can read to get more insight?

Give me a place to start at least.
