what fuel management if boosting 6-7 psi on a sohc vtec motor?

what fuel management do i need? i was thinking of chipping the ecu and getting 450s, but can i just get a vortech fmu and use that? if so where do they sell these fmus?

I agree with Mikey.

Hondata is the way to go, but if you are on a tight budget, a Vortech FMU will get the job done.

Re: (Mikeyslude)

Depends??? I have a similar setup on my wife's car. First check to find out what tuners are available in your area, this is very important... I have the Apexi kit with RC 440's at 8psi using hondata tuned by Mase.. The car pulls so hard and runs like stock!! I love it... "Good Gas Mileage". If you are going to have a tuner tune your car you will only need the Hondata w/ Boost option. If you are going to tune it yourself in the future you will need to purchase at least the S200 with Boost- Dataloging-Rom Editor software.. The price will vary depending on where you buy it from... (ks-motorsports) is good.. Now there are other options out there but it all depends on finding a good close tuner..

Good Luck..
