Default running lean

i just installed I/H/E. i checked my plugs after installtion and i'm running lean, my question is what is the best way to adjust fuel delivery on a tight budget. i already replaced the fuel filter, by the way i have 93 vtec with 117k miles.

How tight of a budget? If you have a few hundred get a VAFC. If you have $50 get an fpr.

If those are your only mods, you should NOT be running lean. If you are, there is another problem with your car. Changing the fuel filter was a good idea. Cleaning the injectors might be a next step to try. Are you running the stock ECU?
