Well unless you're talking about a JDM 98+ 4-1 type-r header first thing I'd do is get a real header. Secondly I've never heard of AEM cams/valve springs/retainers...please enlighten me. And ECU wise, you're going to make the most power with a programable engine management unit like Hondata, AEM EMS, or Uberdata, so I'd go that route.
