The aforementioned fact about Honda's speed density system explains the necessity for a fuel pressure regulator. The fuel pressure regulator was added due to the fact that the attempts made to increase the efficiency of the vehicle through an air filter and/or exhaust system resulted in small horsepower increases because of the test car's fuel injection, which would not automatically correct itself for increased airflow.

Another thing to remember about these tests is that the car used was an Integra Type R, a superbly tuned machine straight from the factory. To say that the overall gains with the additions of our AEM intake, A'pex exhaust, and JDM header are small is clear. But that is far different from saying they are ineffectual. Indeed, the results have proven quite the opposite. The fact that these products improved the performance of an already impressive car speaks volumes. Just imagine what they could do to your Civic EX or Integra GS-R. We are planning on doing a similar test using a Civic as our tester. Stay tuned.

Both AEM and A'pex have gained nationwide success with the variety of products available for the wide range of Honda and Acura applications available. Chances are, if you use either one of those companies as your starting point, you should be able to hit the finish line with winning results.
