The box should be a resistor box that allows it to work in our Hondas. DSM injectors operate a little differently electrically ( , sorry can't explain it any better).

You can use an S-AFC or a V-AFC to control it. The S stands for Super, and the V stands for Vtec. You only use the V-AFC if you have a Vtec motor and you also want to alter the Vtec crossover point.

You can also use some sort of engine management system, which can be a piggyback ECU or an entire standalone system.

Using the AFC to control it is slightly "ghetto" because you can't control timing with it. It's quite hard to adjust fuel/throttle position/rpm in all loads if you have no control of timing. Sometimes the car will run nicely, othertimes it won't. I always thought of the AFC as a temporary fix with turbo cars. With N/A cars, it's not as bad.

That is one choice. Or AEM EMS, or Hondata, or Motec, or Haltec, or Uberdata, etc. Lots of them you can use.
