Default Is my S/C'ed setup bad?

I have a JR S/C GSR boosting 5 psi. only, an AEM Adj. FPR, 450cc injectors and tuned on V-AFC2.

Now here is my question. Is it bad to have an adj. fpr and a piggy back as my setup? If so, why is it?

Other people tell me that I didn't need the adj. fpr and its better to just run on a stock fpr and just have a tune on hondata, crome, etc. Is this true?

Well what you have now will get the job done, but personally and im sure a lot of others will agree that the stock fpr and crome, neptune, or hondata would be far better. Why, piggybacks are hacks and take signals and modify them for the ecu. Hondata, neptune, and crome are actual ecu changes and have for more tuning parameters available and is much safer, better, and more tunable than a vafc or piggyback. Thats why you see full drag cars run crome, hondata, AEM EMS, EMANAGE, ect.

Oh ok. Thanks for the input. I think I will go with the crome because I am in a tight budget.
