Default Basic bolt ons and...

SOrry if this has been asked before ive searched but can find anything

So ive done the basic bolt ons Cold air, header, cat-back.. etc, so since i have more airflow could these mods be making me run leaner?. Should i get some fuel line stuff such as AEM Fuel Pressure Regulator or the Apexi or HKS Super AFR/AFC, reason im asking is cause i dont feel it pushing like it should.

Anyways seriousely any help would be greatly apreciated, i very much enoy the tuning and learning about how all this stuff works

I think he is trying to say that the V-AFC will acomplish everything you need. It is just a S-AFC with a VTEC crossover control.

If you decide to get cams... then I'd recommend an S-AFC.

Basic bolt ons generally sucks for inline 4 engine if you want real power you need real mod.

um... can we just stick to my original question, im not all into "real power" im in to enjoying my self in my lude, keeping it running maybe some basic upgrades, some time in the feuture i may consider heavy moding but until i can aford that kinda stuff its easy goin for now, i want some basic power upgrades light dutty "bolt ons" ya know ill prolly do one thing at a time ive done whole exaust system, next probably fuel system, later ignition.. etc i even plan on rebuilding the engine up but im not gonna jump on getting a turbo or throwing in some nos till after i rebuild.. if i even decide to go that route, more then likley ill go turbo but not for a while for now i wanna go bolt ons internals then ill see about the heavy stuff.

Ne ways so im gonna go with the valve adjustment, and tune up, and probably a fuel presure regulator for now to acomodate for the increased airflow inmy engine now, i proabaly will get a vafc or safc when i get most of my current stuff payed off

You don't need anything to accomadate your current mods. They probly won't even register on the butt'O'meter.

Don't bother doing anything, just save your money for an engine swap(unless I'm off my rock and the non vtec engine you have is super good or something and I have no clue about it).

I believe i3uemrd was asking for slight adjustments, not REAL POWA!!
The Best thing to do is just get tuning done, maybe upgrade valvetrain later, it all depends on what you want to accomplish with your car. Definately next purchase should be SAFC.
