Unless you are using force induction you should just replace everything with oem parts u will be throw in more fuel than your motor needs if you start upgrade fuel components and no getting it tuned which would be assinine

Well there's the other factor of OEM costing like 2-3X more than aftermarket...but look at it this way... you'll only need to repalce it once. By the time the new one is dead, we'll all be in solar-powered flying cars right?
