Guys,
I made an appointment to have the little beast tuned by Kenny (Turbogixxer).

Car (tuning related stuff):

• '93 Hatch with JDM ITR swap
• Buddy Club adjustable Cam Gears
• Chipped P28 with base ITR map
• 3" SRI/BPi velocity stack/K&N Filter
• RMF Narrow replica header
• Apex'i WSII

Performed during the swap (about 9 months ago):

• Cleaned injectors (cleaned by Cruzinperformance.com)
• New timing belt, seals, water pump, VC gasket and related items
• New fuel filter
• New fuel tank (upgraded to a 11.5 gallon, so I know it's clean/no gunk)

To be performed right before tuning:

• Fresh oil and filter
• Valve Adjustment (and installing a temporary cut valve cover for cam gear access)
• Fresh set of NGK PFR6G-11
• New OEM spark plug wires
• New OEM distributor cap and rotor
• Check and replace/clean ALL grounding points in the bay
• Clean battery contacts (Optima Yellow-top)

Anything else I might be missing?

Thanks for the help with the brainstorming.

 

I think it would be best to run this by your tuner.

 

I did. We can't think of anything else.
But I figured it would be beneficial to list everything in one spot and ask for the community's input.
The cam gears, for example, were a last minute thing (he was convinced I already had adjustable cam gears).

i've heard that putting a car with a bad alignment on a dyno can be highly dangerous, is the car aligned?

 

Maybe Ohm the coil? I can't think of anything else lol

I was going to say fuel new fuel tank but you already did it.

 

Yes, she's aligned.
I have very slight dog-tracking in the rear (possibly bad TA from disc conversion), but the front is good.

You mean to check it for resistance?

Yes, I was surprised though, even the old 9.9 gallon tank was very clean inside.
At least I know for sure.

Good thoughts guys, thanks for the suggestions and keep them coming.

 

Right

 

full tank
gap plugs

 

Full tank for good, homogeneous pressure I suppose? Makes sense.

And gap... definitely, thanks.
