You don't have anything done to your motor yet to warrant any tuning at all. Don't worry about tuning your fuel maps until you've done mods that require more fuel. Once you have a bunch more air coming into your engine, you need to add fuel to enrich your A/F mixture and bring it to safe levels.

I wouldn't suggest going at it completely by yourself once you do decide what to do with the motor (I see you already have a thread about that). You'll want to find yourself someone who specializes in tuning. At least take it to this person for a while and learn alongside. A lot of tuners use software like Crome/Uberdata to put new information onto stock OBD1 ECU chips. If you want to hook up the laptop directly to your ECU, you need something like an S300 that was already suggested. First find a tuner, and go with what they tune with.

I think the guys have given you good advice on the other thread. I really don't know much about your motor, but if the general thinking is that you won't see many gains going all motor, you might as well build it for boost.

That said, I wont be seeing more than 200whp on my all motor build, but I'm doing it because I want to do it, not just to have the fastest car in the world. So really up to you. I would suggest a lot of research on builds of your motor, and make your own decision.

Hondata's Website lists all of their authorized dealers throughout the continent. Otherwise, eBay.
