im getting my boosted prelude tunned in a week..and i was jw what everyone does to there car before being dyno tunned.?.what i am going to do it..
new o2 sensor
new plugs
it has new oil it it..about 1 mile on it
new dist. cap and rotor
it has brand new wires

 

o2 sensor should be disabled when tuning so a new one wont help anything.

make sure the front tires are in good shape and properly inflated. check ball joints and bushings, tie rods, lug nuts etc.

make sure you have plenty of whatever fuel you are running

pressure test your whole setup from the turbo inlet to the head to well over the boost you may run.

clean out your interior just as a courtesy to the tuner. no one wants to sit next to your 2 day old mcnuggets a full ashtray for 4 hours.

set base timing

bring a couple sets of extra plugs in whatever heat range(s) you might need

make sure there is no half *** wiring

fix exhaust leaks

bring more money than they told you and be prepared to spend it

make ecu accessible if needed to tune

-thats all i got right now-

 

Tuned, Not Tunned. Good luck.

 

well i only have one o2 bung..and he said there has to be a o2 in it or the ecu will be thrown off

 

what ecu?

Most tuners disable the o2 sensor and put in their own to tune the car.

I can't imagine anyone tuning with the stock one enabled.

 

If it's a chipped ECU with crome or something like that then it will likely have an option to disable the 02 sensor.
