I'm building my block so far i got:

still waiting on:

What is on the car now is:

TP Tubular equal length exhaust manifold
3" Carsound catalytic converter
3" Custom mandrel bent exhaust
3" HKS Ti-Carbon muffler
Spearco Intercooler 28x10x4
HKS Wastegate 9.7 psi
Skunk2 Intake manifold
JG .65 mm throttle body
HKS Super mega-flow filter70mm
Skunk2 Cam Gears
HKS Super sequental blow-off valve
MSD 8.5 Ignition wires
MSD Distributor cap
Spoon Magnetic oil-drain plug
MSD Blaster 2 coil

you're putting all that money and effort into the car; you should spend a few extra bucks and at least go for the AFC hack instead of the FMU (F**ks Motors Up). and if you really wanna be fair to yourself, go for Hondata

I have the HKS Super-AFR which is similar to the AFC im just not 100% sure how the wiring is and im still debaiting if Hondata is right for my application. I'll stick with the FMU tilll i find something better.

Seriously man, anything is better than the FMU because you can't really tune anything with that...I'd wager a gaine of 50hp (considering all the other quality parts you have) if you get a properly tuned management system @10psi or thereabouts.
