Default Question about valve clearance and fuel?

Hey,
Had a question about if my valve clearance was ok? and if I have enough fuel going into the engine, along with timing.
The engine is:
B18C5 Bottom End with CTR Pistons on ITR Rods
B16A Head Ported & Polished to Type R Spec
CTR Valvetrain and Camshafts w/AEM Cam Gears
Bosch High Flow Fuel Pump

Do I have enough valve clearance? I am runing 92 Octane Pump Gas will this suffice? should i get a upgraded ECU?

The car kind of bogs betwee 3-4K RPM.

might be okay, might want to get some bigger injectors, definetly look in to hondata, have the motor clay tested to test for clearance problems, is the only way I know of to check for clearance, and then go from their.

If your valve clearance wasn't enough you'd know about it by now.

You need to get a wideband printout of a dyno run to know whether or not your fuel delivery is correct. Also you didn't mention if you have played with the injector duty cycle or fuel pressure.
