Default performance ship what to do?

ok i have a p28 obd1 ecu which is currently chipped but is chipped wrong for my application its for a turbo and my car is now NA all motor. So im going to list everything done to my car and what im expecting out of it and im wanting your professionalism/experience on what to do.

before we get started i want you to know that this is my first build so bare with me as i don't know alot about performance hondas. I want to be able to drive it daily and maintain somewhere close to the stock fuel mpg but want to be able to go to the track and watch my motor come to life and tear **** up without blowing my **** up lol. With that in mind here is what I got


MOTOR
Edelbrock victor X intake manifold
dh racing throttle body it is also port matched
Hondata im gasket,
PTE Precision Turbo Fuel Injectors 310cc
chipped p28 ecu
greedy extreme timing belt
Brand new JDM cap and rotors
Vision Motorworks 10.2mm Spiral Core 100% Pure Silicone Spark Plug Wire
NGK platinum plus spark plugs
T304 stainless steel with mandrel-bent. ( chrome polished ) racing header
T304 stainless steel with mandrel-bent. ( chrome polished ) full exhaust
BLOX RACING CAM SHAFT SEAL
new head gasket set


BLOCK

sleeved block with block guard install
Mahle 10.5 to 1 compression pistons
New Mahle rings diamond cut to fit
scat h beam rods & ARP rod bolts
scat crank
new water pump
new oil pump.
ACL Rod Bearing Set
ACL Main Bearing Set

HEAD
I just had the head port and polished bead blasted and completely rebuilt this cost me $1000
ARP head studs
Skunk2 Racing Tuner Series dual Valve Spring and Titanium Retainer
Skunk2 One-Piece Forged Valves - High Compression
type r cams "cams were just micro polished before being installed"
AEM adj cam gears
BLOX RACING CAM SHAFT SEAL

TRANSMISSION
JDM b16 non lsd tranny
ACT Extreme stage 3 pressure plate and 6 puck sprung clutch
PTE Precision Turbo Fuel Injectors 310cc



Here are the specs of the chip im currently looking at it this to much or not enough?

VTEC: 4800RPM
Redline: 9000RPM
Launch Control: 4000RPM
Full Throttle Shift: 8500RPM

Shift Light: 8500RPM (Check Engine Lights Up)
02 sensor: DISABLED
Knock Sensor: DISABLED
Speed Limiter: DISABLED

i think i would like vtec to come in a little earlier but not sure what to do on that and the redline is that a little high? shouldn't it be around 7 1/2 or 8 1/2? WTF is launch control mean and whats the purpose and the same for full throttle shift what the hell do they mean and whats the purpose shift light again if i change the redline rpm to 7 1/2 - 8 1/2 then i need to have the shift light at 500 rpm below that right? the knock sensor and 02 sensor i understand that but speed limiter again what the hell is the use for this.


thanks for the help and if possible I need to know ASAP so i can order this tonight so i can get it by Wednesday

thanks.

Why don't you just take it to a professional tuner?

you need to stop where you are right now. DO RESEARCH on your engine and take it from there. If you don't know basic stuff like having someone burn a basemap on a chip for you or what a shift light or launch control is, then you're gonna break something.

take your time and do some research!

this just means you had a shitty tuner. there is no way will a remote tune be better than a dyno tune, given both tuners know what they are doing
