This is more of a forced induction question and one that has many topics if you search.

FMU's require a inline fuel pump for the high pressures the FMU uses. It's a skectchy setup and one that can be solved with many other fuel management options that actually allow of timing changes.

I would stay away from FMU's. They seem to work alright for low boost applications but like NSXmatt said, they are a bit sketchy. In todays times there are other pretty cheap alternatives for a much safer setup.

FMU's and piggybacks are fine for like 60hp gains on boost.

If you wanna do it right ur best off getting Hondata s200 or chipping an OBD-I ECU, either of them can be tuned on a dyno, that's ur best bet for boost, dyno tuning = ownage.
