Default i need help with the tuning on my car..

hey guys i need help about tuning.
I have a 95 honda del sol si. here is my setup
stock mini me d16a swap
automatic (damn)
T3/T4 turbo .57 trim .63 a/r if i remember correctly.
no intercooler yet but in the process of mounting it up.
FMU
Missing link
i know that is the shittiest for tuning but i needed to drive it around for now. im in the process of getting these items for upgrades
rc 440 injectors
Apexi afc hack
walbro fuel pump.
are these the things i need so i can use the hack? do i need the resistor box for the injectors?
And i want to boost at 10psi. is that too much for a stock engine and that big of a turbo?
what are the steps that i need to take for my car?
retard the timing?
also im buying new spark plugs cause t's time for the cars tune up. thank you in advance!

Take the car to a professional to be tuned, it's complex and isn't meant for the average DIY'er.

you may be able to, it won't run well or last long. just get it tuned.

well how about i get the hack,injectors and the wideband and get it tuned to 10psi will it be good enough?
i know using an FMU isn't a good way but it's the only thing that i have right now. im only boosting 6psi right now. so it should be ok till i get the hack right?

There's to many variabls to give you a clear cut answer.

Best bet, get a chipped ecu and run Crome.

What's more sensible, a couple more bucks now or a rebuild when things let go?

dude that turbo is gonna be pretty laggy on there.

find someone local who can give you a good street tune/basemap. nothing wrong with chip tuning like crome, but make sure you/whoever does it know whats going on
