ok, now back to the honda stuff... i was motivated by my recent drag strip visit to try and get mo' power out of my car... and while doing some research...i came to find that i dont have to succumb to the vtec gods just yet!! i already have the b18b out of my last integra. it's complete, and already has arp head studs in it, and i also have in my possession a set or pr3 pistons.. (got in a trade a while back)..
so ive read that i can put the pr3's on my ls rods (i know, and add arp rod bolts) toss a fresh set of 'rings and bearings on it, along with a main stud bolt set (arp) get the crank knife edged and balanced, get the engine honed, get a set of crower cams (403's?) along with all the necessary valve train upgrades, (p&p head, valves, springs, retainers, and cam gears) and whammo!!! a decently potents engine!! right? so what ive never dealt with before is the undertaking of the engine management.... what to go with? whats the best bang for the buck? demon? neptune? hondata? chrome?
i dont want super heavy duty stuff here...just want for whoever is going to dyno tune this thing to be able to do just that, and i want reliability... i know it doesnt actually exist in the world of motorsports... but i would like something cheap and reliable... what do you guys recommend?
im not going to try and rev this new setup to 9k rpms, i would like to keep it as RELIABLE as possible...will i need bigger injectors? will i need a bigger fuel pump?

To mr dual 500... There!!! I painted the damn valve cover, and fixed the valve cover leak, and the distributor o-ring leak, and adjusted the valve lash, and replace the cam plug, and set the base timing... But most importantly, i painted the valve cover!!!! Because it would have continued to bother mr. 500!!!
