Default were to get a base tune?

Im in the process of building my first motor. Its a high compression b20 vtec. I have a chipped p06. I want to get it running and work out any bugs before i go to get it dyno tuned. It will also be on e85. I have absolutely no tuning experience. What are my options to get this thing running before i get it dyno tuned? The closest tuner is about 4 hours away from me also.

Running a basemap on e85 isn't usually a good idea unless you have a wideband to monitor things with. Especially on a fresh build!

Do your self a favor, buy a wideband & tunable engine management system like hondata s300 or neptune rtp etc.

I will be using a wideband for sure.

To work out any BUGS, I usually recommend Stock Injectors, Stock Map Sensor and either a stock ECU or stock mapping for your motor (with o2 sensor turned on).

Once you get those bugs worked out, then switch to the E85 and tune it right away
