Default finally getting tuned... what do i need to do?

im finally getting my daily driver/track car dynoed in the next two weeks. im going to take it to ARfabrication in winchester, va because they seem like a good shop and ive heard good things about them. ive been street tuned since the car was finished up earlier this year. im currently running a vafc hack but it will be tuned w/ hondata. i plan on leaving the afc installed for now but reconnecting the wires for the map and vtec signal wires, just b/c of the way its installed in the car.

in general what should i do to get ready to be tuned? would it be a good idea to change the spark plugs, oil, and other small things before its tuned or wait till its tuned and do all the afterwards???

any other small tips anyone can help me out with would be great, i dont want to get to the shop and have forgotten anything and have to wait longer..

I think basically just replace anything that would affect the tune if changed afterwards, such as spark plugs, wires (if they need replacing)...make sure the boost you're running is what you want to run, so that you dont have to go back if you decide that you want it lower or higher...double check all your ic piping...overall just do the basic check of everything before you bring your car down...good luck with the tune.
