hello, im currently in the process of swapping 1JZGTE VVTI into my s13 hatch.
i just have to drop the motor in and put everything together if everything goes well.

but my question is, would i need to tune the car after?
im from southern california and i was wondering whos reputable tuner for these engines?

thanks in advance!

You shouldn't have to tune it to get it running. What is wrong with the stock tune? As long as you have the ecu and harness I don't see why you would need to tune the ecu, unless you want to turn up the boost or something.
