Well I dont know if its such a ragged edge I would be on. Maybe I should upgrade
the fuel just in case and to give me a margin of safety. Not to say I wouldnt tune
it, but still.
And I think I will go with a FMIC. ---- looks cheap and something about a FMIC on a
little Civic.

why use a fmu? it cost like 90 bucks and you can just get you ecu chipped for 75 bucks and get a set of 450dsm's and be safer. i wouldnt pay 150ish for a used vafc and 50-60 bucks for 450's when i can just get my ecu chipped.

Do I have to use 450's with a VAFC? So the ballast box makes it where I can actually
use that TYPE of injector, and the VAFC hack lets me control them.
So without a tune or some sort of fuel computer, just slapping those in with the box and a FMU will cause it to not run....or just real shitty.
Anyone have any other suggestions on what i should do?

you need to read a LOT more before you start working on anything.

get your self a obd ll to obd l harness and just run crome/uberdata on obd l ecu.

There are so many ways to go about doing this here fruel setup (in order from shitty to awesome):
a) FMU, wideband (sucks ***)
b) 450's, resistor box, V-AFC (not too horrible.. you'll also need a wideband o2)
c) 450's, resistor box, P28, OBD2-1 conversion harness, wideband, chip burner and if you're a baller - get yourself an Ostrich
