Making a gaugeless dual map tune with only Wideband and MAP wired to stock ECU?

I was just looking at Tephra 7 and it says it has some AFR safety features etc. in place

If I was to configure Tephra 7 to run with an AFR sensor and MAP sensor so that I could log accurate AFR and Boost, assuming all safety thresholds are set, is there any real issues/tuning limitations? I understand that I won't have an AFR/Boost gauge to physically see but is that a real problem?

Basically I want to spend as little money as possible so I don't want gauges if I don't really need them.

Or can use zeitronix or innovate and still do the same thing.

I ran my car without a wideband display gauge for almost 7 years. You will be fine doing the same just make sure you do not have any leaks in the exhaust system pre-wideband sensor.

Anyone know if I can use an Innovate MTX-L and log without a gauge?

What your describing is how I'm running right now. I don't like the look of gauges inside so I just plug in and log every once in a while to make sure everything is running right. But when things go wrong you can usually feel it in the engine anyway.
