Default Boosted B18A1/B16 LS/VTEC HELP!

I'm completely new to working on cars (hence why I bought a Honda) I want to do as much work on it as I can but unfortunately don't have the resources to do it myself and will be taking it to a shop to leave it to the professionals. I know there are plenty of threads like this but it seems like most are not boosted/built already. Bought my car as is pretty much and it currently has a B18A1, new bearings, eagle rods, cp pistons bored .5 over, DOC race manifold, Precision 5976 turbo, turbo smart waste gate, tail BOV, and a 4 bar map sensor. It's tuned on Hondata S300. The previous owner had plans to put a B16A2 head (could be A1 but not likely) on but is having a kid and didn't have the time. I noticed my head gasket is leaking a little oil and decided when's a better time than now to get the VTEC head on. Is there anything I need done to the head before taking it in? Also a list of parts I'm going to need before taking it to the shop would be INCREDIBLY helpful. Much thanks in advance!
