I feel your pain - mine is sitting on the engine stand tormenting me while my heads are three states away. "Go time" cannot come soon enough.
Steveo has a robo-tune function on his fbodytech.com site that can generate some useful compare bins as well. Just don't get too hung up on getting a "base tune". I think you'll find that your best base tune will be had using the tools in eehack to get your idle spark advance and individual cylinder trims as good as they can be working from your stock bin. Also, my advice as a fellow green-horn tuner is to not take anything you read anywhere as gospel.
The beauty of a manual car is that you don't have to spend a bunch of time trying to tell the PCM what you want it to do with the transmission. Slushboxes are great for drag racing and getting groceries. Drivers like to drive.
