eCtune, Hondata S300, and Neptune are some of the most common tuning softwares. The size injector you would use depends on how much HP you want. A set of DSM 450cc injectors are good for about 300WHP.

FYI...there is a D-Series thread that has a lot of information that will help you achieve your goal.

Weird combo fully built motor minus sleeving but an EBAY turbo kit and no tuning. This sounds more like fully stock motor with a cheap owner. If the setup is true it is backwards of thinking. I would rather have a stock motor with a really nice turbo kit and a lot of tuning.

I'd say put it back to all motor before you blow it and do it right by getting engine management (I use Hondata), upgrade your fuel system etc...
