Are you looking to tune a stock F20? Or is there some work on the motor that needs to be tuned up?

i'm not exactly sure at the moment. there are issues with the car right now, i posted them in the forced induction area, i may need a new map sensor or something, but when i took it to the dealer they said i needed a tune.i'm sorry i'm new to all this stuff, so i don't know what F20 is...i have a vortech s/c and i think the guy before us tuned it a little strange

No biggie. F20C1 is the engine block for model year 2000-2003 S2000's, F20 is just the abbreviation.

Have fun with it when it is good to go

How? Unless there is a VAFC or stand alone, the only thing that can be adjusted is fuel pressure.
