Default Is this a good setup?

I am running:
Comptech ice box
Comptech 4-2-1 tig headers
Test Pipe
RSR 2.25" magnum tippped muffler
2001 CTR Intake and exhaust cams with CTR springs and retainers
Toda Adjustable Cam Gears

I plan on:
Holley fuel regulator
Holley High Flow Fuel pump
Prelude Fuel injectors
AEM high flow fuel rail
Bored out Throttle body(doing research on what diameter to bore it out to, suggestions would be helpful)
A light port and polish on the Head and a polished and port matched intake manifold.
ECU programmed by HONDATA to compliment it all
Koni yellows with Ground Control coilovers
Type R rear sway bar with BSQ kit(where can i find this)

So if anyone has any suggestions as to how well this will work,or other parts that i should think about instead what i have listed, I would greatly appreciate it. Mind you all this is for a 1994 GSR.

Why are you concentrating so much on your fuel delivery system? None of that stuff is really going to make any different with the stuff you've listed so far?

Are you planning to go with a forced induction setup? If so then it makes sense, but normally people spend all the money when they go do the forced induction, not before.

If you're going to go with a JRSC, why are you going to go through the trouble to upgrade the throttle body?

Also I don't think that the JRSC needs enough fuel to really need an upgraded pump, etc.

I guess what i'd suggest is decide what you're going to do and build your way towards it... trying to buy the stuff that is going to offer improved performance while you're doing the build-up.

Dumping extra fuel doesn't really help unless there is extra air along with it. Yeah, I don't know the exact specs of a JRSC but somewhere I've seen them around the 8 psi range. I don't think you need all that for it. Bigger injectors and a AFC should help some.

According to Hondata, the fuel injectors need to upgraded for any boost, because they're nearly maxed out already. Upgrading the fuel system isnt a bad idea unless you stay all motor. 4-1 headers with short primary work better with JRSC's than 4-2-1's. I would consider a water injection kit with the charger since they're not intercooled.

sounds pretty good. you do have a hellava lot of fuel management. thats ok its easier to lean out than get richer. get a holley throttle body. i know they make two get the smaller one if you are staying n/a and the bigger one for forced induction. please do not use the jrsc. i have seen and heard more horror stories about quality and customer service than i can count on one hand. they make decent numbers but there are better (vortech). just remember you get what you pay for.

thanks for the input guys, i think some of the fuel management pieces aren't really necessary but it was what i was thinking. the car has 90,000 miles on it so i don't think i will really go with the JSRC, probably just keep it as a N/A. I do plan on doing some fuel managment next(that is of course after i get a better suspension system). probably send my ecu off to Hondata or just buy one off of em that's already programmed(to have a back up just in case) because i believer they will get it right on the money for me(although i do believe i should roll the old injectors over and replace em with the 97+ prelude sh injectors) keep it coming guys, the more informed one is the more likely that person will make the right decision on his setup!!
