I would service both the shock and forks, including fresh oil, and set the sag before sending for a re-valve so that you have a baseline to work from. You will then be able to provide the tuner with information regarding where the valving needs improvement. The zoke 45's can be improved by tuning, and valving so that they flow more oil, but they are going to have some limitations when compared to some of the closed cartridge forks (showa, KYB, Zoke 48's). Just my opinion.
