Default new car help please

I'm looking at buying a 2000 civic dk with a built gsr 1.8 crevice engine. Mods are:

Gsr 12:1 forged compression pistons. Fully balanced. To 9000 rpm Cai high flow exhaust. light weight fly wheel spec stage 2 clutch gsr obd1 ecu with jumper harness.

Few questions. What do I need so I can take car in to tune it. Also safe build? Any thing I should look for when goin to look at the car to buy?? Thanks

Asked for receipts.

Find a tuner local to you and ask what he suggests for tuning. Since he would be the one to tune the car, it is usually best to go with what he/she is most comfortable with.

yea like he said.. ask for receipt or proof of build... also ask wat he is currently tuned on.. my best option is go for a hondata s200.. itll make more power than chrome etc

Yea, if we are making a personal suggestion on tuning devices, go with Hondata. IMO, it is much better than the others.

I believe the S200 is no longer supportted, or at least discontinued at this time. I think the set-up is either the very basic S100 program that only an authorized Hondata Tuner can touch, or the S300 where you can go in and make real-time changes etc etc etc through your laptop if you have one. I love my S300.
