Default S-VAFC Help on 13b

a buddy of mine has a 2nd gen 13b rx-7 turbo-ll, he has scrapped the stock engine and bought a brandnew one with 3mm apex seals race ported and everything. Had a custom turbo shop build up his turbo rated for 450+ hp and he replaced just about everything else possible in the engine bay. As you can probally tell he put alot of money into this and dosent want to harm the engine by starting it up un- tuned. He has a S-VAFC, its installed and ready to go, the only thing he needs is his front mount intercooler. He wants to get it running soon so he's going to need to have sum1 that knows what there doing tune his S-VAFC. It came with instructions however they say that only a person expirenced with vafcs should tune it.

Are there any reccomended sites that can teach you basics of operating it?

Is there anyone in the Lancaster PA area that knows how to use the safc?

Will it harm his engine if he starts it up without tuning it, or is it automatically set to run rich?

What else would you reccomend using to tune it? He wants to break it in a bit then take it to a dyno to get tuned. Would you reccomend upping the fuel just so it runs rich until he can get it tuned?
