Default Make sense to you?

Ok, heres my setup- 2000 GSR, JRSC@10psi, Boost upgraded (Fuel pump, Boost depended regulator), MAP controller, BTC, JR Thermostat, I/H/E, Clutch/LSD/Flywheel, MSD igniton, Skunk2 cam gears, AEM big brakes, H&R Race springs, and Koni 5-ways.

My plans, in chronological order-
1)VAFC (I dont have a grand for Hondata)
2)ITR Rear Sway Bar, Beaks or BSQ kit
3)C-Pillar Brace
4)Injectors

I hear I need more fuel from everyone EXCEPT the guy thats building my motor. But at 10psi, I think its common sense I need more. Hondata quotes a base price of a grand just to get started with a system. Thats not going to happen. Im planning on cams in afew months and rods/pistons in about a year. Does this sound logical?

well i would say hit the dyno that will show you a air to fuel chart and see if you are running lean anywhere and if you are, that vafc will help a little, i say hit the dyno just to see where you stand with fuel at this time....

True, but if I go for cams, then isnt a VAFC more or less required?

you look into the SMC unit for fuel management? I recall the cost of that setup is in between the VAFC and the Hondata. Than again I'm not looking up or at any info... just stuff I seem to recall.

No, I havnt looked at any of the other brands. APEXI is just such a leader in the inustry I figured Id stick with the tried and true. Also, I think it would be basically be used for pounding out more fuel, rather than finely tuning the curve. Am I right? Also, the VAFC has the vtec engagement, I dont think any others do. Correct me if Im wrong.

EDIT- ohh, and while were at it, which do you prefer? Beaks or BSQ?

An ITR Exhaust cam and the stock GSR intake cam will compliment the SC better then the skunk stage 1's
