Default what else do i need before i go to get tuned?

im in the process of building an h2b setup.

and right now im trying to wrap up buying everything i need, there is a tuner here, but he is about 5 hours from me. I havent spoke with him yet, and it would probably be just as easy to call him, but i like HT. he's actually on here too.. but figured i'd just post up and see what all kind of insight i can get.

heres what i have:

88 hatch,
qsd h2b kit
2000 usdm h22a4 (currently rebuilding with ACL, new rings sets & seals)
jdm b16 oem lsd tranny,
competition 6puck clutch
fidanza flywheel
walbro 255
GE fuel rail
aeromotive adjustable fpr w/ gauge
hondata IM gasket
adj. cam gears
aem cai v2 ----- (should i get something different?)
kaizen speed BS elim. kit
hardwired to obd1
p28

NEPTUNE DEMON (NOT PUCHASED YET)
HEADER / exhaust (NOT PURCHASED YET)

i want to see what i can get out of this first. then i plan to go turbo, but i have to keep it real, that honestly wont be for a while. so i just want this to run very well and be very reliable.

-should i get injectors or will the oem ones be sufficient for my current set-up??
-is there anything else that im not thinking of?
-should i get any certain type of gauges? (i have an autometer A/F gauge too, if it matters..)

thanks guys,
Z.

the injectors are a give or take, you can upgrade so the future boost tuning will be easier, or you can stick to the stock injectors.

And just a FYI, the Autometer A/F gauge is virtually worthless.

thats what i heard about the gauge.. to bad i didnt hear that a few years back when i bought it... oh well.. if it will be of no use to a tuner, i can put it on ebay..

You have it pretty much covered, your stock injectors will be good for now.
