Default prelude parts

Would I benefit putting 1992 Prelude Si injectors and fuel pressure regulator in my 1994 Civic EX? I figure at least the FPR, because it will flow more fuel, right?

i was told that the civic injectors are hundred and somethings cc's and the prelude injectors were threehundred and something cc's. I think i can understand why the injectors wont work, but the FPR is what caught my attention, when a person buys a aftermarket FPR they raise the fuel pressure, a prelude throws more fuel than a civic. So in theory would'nt the FPR work?

ya it'll throw more fuel but the only reason you'd want to do that is if your boosted. more fuel doesnt = more performance.

i plan purchasing a msd ingition system, already have a aem cai and custom cat back. wouldnt the extra air and spark compensate for the extra fuel?

So the only reason anybody should buy a aftermarket FPR is if they boost?
