Default Running RICH any suggestions?

Ok here's the deal and I will listen to everyone's suggestions and input! My friend has these mods

91 crx
b16a small t3 turbo
drag manifold
fmic
38mm wg
3'' exhaust
450's
vafc
missing link

Now the car is REALLY RICH even taking 50% of the fuel out. I had a turbo gsr with a uberdata program and loved it so i suggested he go the same route. Now until he find a chipped ecu or someone in MD that could do this are there any tips i should pass along?

1) Park the car so he doesn't blow it up.

2) It's okay to drive to a tuner on a basemap, but don't boost.

3) Get it tuned.

best bet is to buy a stock ecu and then send it off to be chipped and tuned and then roll from there. you will be much safer and the risk of blowing up will lessen and you will have proper fuel to air ratio.... but still its best to do a street and dyno to so you know everything is in working order. i mean you come this far you cant cheap out on the fuel management. fuel management is the MOST important part of a turbo motor. it can make or break you.
