Default Turbo S2000 help! Need a tuner

Hello, I'd just like to say that i do not owna s2000, im just posting on here to try and help a friend get his car back on track. I have a 2001 lightning. Anyhow here goes:
Friend has a 2003 s2000
It runs pretty crappy, has no vtec, and its putting out black smoke/running way too rich.
Anyhow, the car has
RevHard turbo kit
AEM computer
550 injectors? upgraded fuel pumps
straight exhaust
he has apexi turbo timer/controllers

You'll have to help me understand this stuff, i know nothing about imports or even turbos for that matter, so i do not know the actual names for his mods.
He has taken the car to get dyno tuned, they found a power drop where vtec would normally engage, they tuned the car to something gay like 200rwhp, which is obviously way low. Maybe it was the dyno, who knows.
Can anybody recommend a good Tuner for this car?
Or can suggest possible issues?
He's put a ton of money into this car, and its just not performing yet. Typically i know my way around a v8 sports car, but this is a whole new game for me. Thought i'd try to find him some help

pm Beroznikmal and take it where he had his done. Ask for a guy named Josh (I can't remember what the shop is called). Here's their number: 302.798.7000. They're located in northern Delaware (about an hour or so south of Philadelphia).

It's First State Motorsports. Speak to Dan or Josh. I believe Dan does most of the tuning though.
