Default FINALLY getting tuned...any suggestions?

Well my car has been running rich as fawk for too long...its time to take action. Ive got an appointment at turbo tune for monday at 1:30. Im only gonna do an hour on the dyno because im broke....and i should be able to get it in the ballpark in an hour. My setup is a 90 crx with a b18a...custom kit consisting of t3/to4e(57 trim, 60 a/r), revhard min, tial wg set at 7psi, rc440's, smc500, spearco ic, and an hks bov. Im running open dp right now and i think i will on the dyno too...but im not sure. What would you guys do...open dp or a 2.25" exhaust that bottle necks to like 1.75? Im really doing this to get it running better...but im nervous about what kinda numbers im gonna make. What should i be happy with with my setup? Thanks in advance for the many replies im gonna get

yea i would run it with DP too otherwise you'll have some real disapointing numbers if you have it bolted it up with the stock exhaust.

tune it how ever you are going to run it in the future. It's gay to make big dyno #s then detune it on the street. I'm in a similar boat as I have just finished my new setup but I haven't built my exhaust yet (1.75" ). I plan on waiting a couple weeks and tuning it with the exhaust. it's cheaper to do it once.

Yea i agree with you about people tuning for high hp the detuning it on the street. I actually run open dp 90% of the time because my exhaust keeps blowing off...its only held on with clamps until i get a 3". So what numbers doyou guys think ill put down? Whats the lowest number i should be happy with?
