bought 93 single turbo. have tune up ???'s

Just bought a 93 fd single turbo. My first fd so I need information about having a tune-up done.

Here is a quick run down of my car, rebuild engine w/ 3mm seals, xs to4s single turbo, hks wastegate, 850/1600 injectors, blitz front mount intercooler, upgraded radiator, upgraded clutch/lighten flywheel, power fc, bosch fuel pump, no cats, and etc.

I just need information on a entire engine tune-up.

oil weight and brand to use
spark plugs and brand to use
coolant and brand and ratio to use
transmission weight and brand (how many bottles)
rear diferrential weight and brand (how many bottles)
and any other fluids you can think of.

thanks guys!!!

All depends on what boost levels you run & how the ignition maps are tuned...
