Get a logger and tune for knock. If you want better results get a logger+wideband. If you want great results strap it on the dyno.

I haven't seen much for good pump gas yet this year. Every pump gas has seemed like crap so far this year.

Are you running a 2g intake on a 1g head?

0psi is safe.
I would say make an appointment to have it tuned, then your vehicle will be safe.
