What have you done to your motor that requires more fuel?

then you will need something to control them. but dsm 450's are pretty popular with boosted hondas.

nothing too major, intake, exhaust, ignition system, headers. its just runnin real lean, and my mechanic buddy said that slightly bigger injectors would help to fix that, as well as add some more power.

Why dont you get a FPR(Fuel pressure regulator)?? Id think that would be cheaper than buying 4 better injectors. With those bolt ons you dont need that much fuel.

you should just try to score a used vafc for cheap...that way you could control the fuel, but if your not familiar with one they can be sort of confusing i guess...
or you can, like stated above, just get a fuel pressure reg. easier to install...

how do you know your car is running lean? with those mods your stock injectors/fuel system should be fine.

more gas does NOT = more power.

he said that the very white bulid-up on the spark plugs was because it was running lean. more air, not more fuel.

no need for new injectors, just get them tested for flow, make sure they're not sticking... FPR is all you need, plus change your fuel filter, and make sure fuel pump is in good working order
