hi all am proud to say that am now a new member of the hondata forum!
ok i am building a h22a motor for the street(daily driven).my goal is to put down 400whp.my setup is as follows;

Turbonetics turbo(t3/t4oe .60 trim)
Turbonetics turbo manifold
External WastGate deltaGateIII,open dump
PWR 31x11x3 intercooler
turboXS RFL Blowoff valve
AEM Fuel Rail
AEM Adjustable FuelPressure Regulator
GReddy 440cc Injectors
AEM Adjustable Cam Gears
MissingLink
V-AFC
GReddy ProFec B Boost Controller
Greddy turbo timmer
Stock head
Stock ecu.
act clutch.
JE 9:1 pistons
Eagle Rods/ARP Bolts
Darton Flanged Sleeves
Polished & balanced Crank.

Now do you think i can get that kind of power without the hondata?
I know this is a hondata site but really if i don't need it let me know please.Also if there is anything you would like to add fell free to do so.
thanks for your help & information.

Hondata and some bigger injectors would be "safer".

and better. You wont' be able to go higher tahn 11 psi without throwing a CEL.
I guess why would you not get some type of EMS when you have a built engine:?:

well i can't afford a stand alone system right now.
my mechanic said that 450cc's will be fine for me.
i keep telling him don't you think i should get 550cc's instead and he say that
i can but it will be hard to get the car to idle right.
that's why am using the missing link with a adjustable fpr and v-afc
the only thing is i will prolly be running rich all the time untill i go into boost
because he will have to turn the fuel pressure way up then tone them down a little bit with the v-afc. i don't plan on running more than 15psi that should max my hp out at around 370ish. and 7psi daily.
more info please. thanks.

You won't get 550's to idle well (if at all) on a VAFC.
I say wait till you get the money for a standalone and tune it. Running way rich on a new motor isn't the best thing for it. Save up for the EMS.
