Thanks for the suggestion, is the Cipher connected through the driver side OBD II port? Or does it connect through directly to the car computer? Also is it recommended to constantly monitor A:F or knock even after the tuning stage? If it is I'd need a dedicated cluster or display.

Yea the HKS unit seems to be popular. I've seen some creative locations that people put them in. not sure Where I would put it yet.

Yup it connects to the OBDII port. You'll need a laptop though as it's merely a licensed cable and tuning software.

That sounds pretty nice, but the only draw back is no 24/7 monitoring without a laptop. I like using it for tuning, but is it not a problem that there's no "keeping an eye" on engine stats such as A:F ? and other importanties?
