I only made it past set up one and it looks like you might need to do just a little bit more home work, ummm yeah that would be greeeaat(in an bill Limburg from office space)
-First of all, if you going with a custom downpipe go with 3". No need for that punny 2 3/4"
-If you are gonna resleeve the block and if it was done right, you dont need block guard.
-If you get a hondata, you wont need the Apex AFC, or the prospeed racing ecu(didnt know there was such a thing) Also, if you are OBD2 you are gonna need to convert it to OBDI so that means you need a OBDI ECU, harness converter to use hondata.
-Now why would you get lower compression pistons, then get a head gasket to make it lower. Maybe there is something I missed here.
I recomend getting a book called maximum boost written by Corkey Bell to help you out some. I didnt write this to offend you ,just to direct you on your path to FI. You might want to research this just a little more before you make a post like this.
