you want your motor to last ditch the fmu, and get a fuel management system, it can be done without forged pistons, but you will need a good tune on it

definatly ditch the FMU... I ran one on my lude for a while and all it equaled was problems... If your going to keep the motor stock then make sure you get some good fuel management (hondata, uberdata, etc) and some bigger injectors then tune the hell outta it... I would also recommend not boosting over 8psi on the stock motor...

I recommend engine managment
fuel pump

I think you'll get by with the stock injectors boosting 6-7 psi.

Greddy=safe power
Greedy=blown engine.......haha

somebody wants to sell me a greddy turbo, manifold, Greddy E manage, and downpipe for $800. is that a good deal. and im guessing the greddy e manage is for fuel management?
what brand name do you guys recommend for the fuel management (hondata, uberdata, or what). and also how much do these things run, i havent checked?

Thanks
