Info and what's next?

Ok what I have 96 CX with 99 GSR swap with the following upgrades on the car now Exedy Stage II Street Racing Clutch, N-1 exhaust, AEM cai, B&M 255 LPH Fuel Pump, NGK Iridium plugs with OBX 10.3mm wires, GSR Full Size Radiator, and DC Sports 4-1 header. Now what I have ordered AEM fuel pressure regulator, AEM fuel filter, AEM fuel rail, Skunk2 IM and TB, Skunk2 cam gears, Skunk2 stage 2 cams with valvetrain, and a hondata. I'm just wondering if I will need to upgrade my fuel injectors or will the factory ones be ok with that set up? I was also wondering if a oil cooler is worth the money. I'm going to be doing bottom end next but as for that I can't think of any other N/A upgrades to do for it.

slow down there... you are wasting money like it is growing on trees... You don't need the AEM fuel rail or filter (stock stuff is good for like 300hp). You don't even need the 255lph fuel pump.

Hondata will require you to go obd1. I would ditch the hondata and go uberdata. Ditch the obx wires and put in some oem or ngk ones for $45. You aren't going to find a better wire without spending several hundred dollars... I would also ditch the AEM fuel pressure regulator and buy an Aeromotive regulator.

You don't need an oil cooler unless this is a track car or you have a turbo.

Your stock injectors are fine unless you plan to go turbo.

Ok what about an ignition system? Why switch my OBX for NGK? Also why a Aeromotive regulator than the AEM? What's the difference between uberdata and hondata? Sorry for all the why's just curious about switching those two items for just different brands.

10.5mm wires. those must be huge. the stock ignition is perfectly fine unless you plan to push a lot of power (250+whp) which is no easy task.

uberdata and hondata are essentially the same. only uberdata is free. to an extent.

Isnt the Aeromotive FPR a rising rate regulator. Meaning that the fuel pressure rises and falls with the rpms.

And personally, i would suggest Crome Professional over uberdata. Less kinks.
And another....personally i would not get the head build yet and get a nice header.

All regulators behave this way. That is what the vacuum line going from the intake manifold to the regulator does. At idle, there is high vacuum, which causes low fuel pressure. As engine rpm increases, vacuum goes down and fuel pressure goes up.

OBX sucks NGK rules. wouldnt recommend anything else for a honda/acura. I wouldn't do hondata or chrome or uberdata. NEPTUNE. no need to upgrade ignition. hondas and acuras have strong ass ones from factory. which is why i consider msd a waste of money on them. get some bolt-ons and internals that actually matter.
