I took the test first time and went straight to tests and passed no problem. Yes and no as far as Super Knowledgeable. It's as easy or as complicated as you want to make it.
Heres a VERY ROUGH AND BASIC layout for adjustments in a "COBB" style layout, lol
Stage 1 - Closed Loop Adjustment
Absolute minimal adjustment we would only change MAF scaling based on logs to be tweaked to your car
Stage 2 - Improve Driveability
Remove emissions adjustment from AVCS table
Tweak load compensation which vastly improves driveability
Stage 3 - Open Loop Adjustment
*** You'll need a wideband ***
Adjust open loop portion of MAF scaling
Stage 4 - Increase safety as well as power and make car smoother to drive
Smooth / Adjust Timing tables and Dynamic Advance Tables
Remove per cylinder adjustment
Tweak Tip-In
Stage 5 - Customize
Adjust Boost levels for I, S and S# modes
Smooth boost out to put less strain on motor
Customize pedal feel to personal preference
