You need to get a wide band on it. Its really the best way to tune IMO. Do you have a FPR? What injectors are you running? Are you running an open BOV (venting to atmosphere) did you change out your fuel pump?

RE: d16y7 turbo running too rich
depends on what u want and how much u willing to spend? Those are questions u should be asking for a wideband.

RE: d16y7 turbo running too rich
Your running on a basemap that is why you are so rich. Get it dyno tuned by someone who knows what they are doing. Then do some research on turbocharged hondas.
