d16z6 build help

[mcma0013]

I am nearing the end of my d16z6 build, and i have one question. What to do about tuning? the main concern i have is will it be safe to run the motor for a while before i figure out which route i will go with tuning. It is a d16z6 with a shaved head (very little), crower cam, new springs and retainers, port and polish, and srp pistons. Thanks.

what sort of compression/how crazy is the cam?

If its nothing toooooo crazy you should be able to at least get the car up and running, perhaps look into having someone make you a basemap to get you started?

ok thanks. i think the pistons were 10.5.1, then the head was shaved a little. with a multi layer head gasket. it is a crower stage 1.

Figure it out, get the car tuned period. Drive it around and you run the risk of hurting it. Better safe then sorry, if your obd1 and not looking to spend much and have a good local tuner that does crome then do that.
