Default Fuel Rail

I got B16A not too long ago. I'm thinking about putting in a new after market fuel rail. Any recommendation? What brand should I go for?

Don't waste your money. If your engine is near stock, then the stock rail can get the job done.

I put on the AEM, but really all it does is look pretty. If you're on a budget I would buy other things first, because the stock rail can flow enough to supply 500whp @ 90psi. If it means anything the AEM supposably will flow enough for 1000whp.

I'm a newbie to this. I'm gonna put in a CAI. With that, don't I need a new fuel rail that would put in more gas to balance the mixture?

No, because the stock rail can flow enough for 500whp, you're not going to get that out of a CAI. Your stock Honda ecu will adjust fuel enough for the amount of horsepower gained by the CAI. The fuel rail will not increase your fuel flow on such a mildly modded car.
