Default 92 civic ls turbo tuning question

sup guys i need some help on tuning about what i should have before i go to the dyno tune shop. well heres the rundown.95 ls turbo b20 cams all stock i have a turbonetics t3/t4 50 trim turbo, blitz front mount intertcooler also have a fmu ,missing link, greddy bov aeromotive fpr, walbro 255 fuel pump, rc racing 310cc injectors, 3 inch down pipe exaust all around (sounds perfect), msd box, msd blaster ss3 coil, msd 2 step, auto meter pyro meter, greddy full auto turbo timer, afr gauge, apexi vafc2 controller (all gauges hooked up and work fine), car tuned with the vafc2, also running stock ls ecu. my question is what is next, the car is set up to run rich and is running rich, runs fine, i'm boosting 14 lbs. when i hit 14 lbs the check engine light comes on and reads map code 3. what kind of ecu to get, what kind of dino to put it on and what would be the best engine management system??? Crome, Uber data, Hondata or just chip out my stock ecu??? i guess that's it!! The car does run fine I just want to make it right, need the numbers

Get rid of the fmu and vfac tune. I would go with Crome casue it is cheap and effective. Go to Dyno inc and talk to them about Crome and tuning. You will most like spend less money for the Crome chipping and Getting tuned than you would just buying a used hondata.

junk the fmu and missing link.

crome pro is identical to hondata and half the price. hondata, crome and uberdata are all rom editing programs, that are used to modify a file on your computer then burned to a chip, all of these will work with a "chipped" or socketed ecu. i hate when people say that they are getting uberdata or whatever....its like saying you are gonna put MS Word in your car.
