I also had an AEM fuel rail and a FPR set at 5psi more then stock for the cams. And it was a CAI not SRI.
Qtiger, why would I have gained 10 hp with a different header?
Do you mean if I had a 4-1 header?

2.5" collector wouldn't hurt either.

Switching to a lighter flywheel doesn't make any power, it decreases the rotating mass of the driveline which improves transient response (a.k.a. how willing to change revs the motor is).

On the same note Mike does removing PS and AC make more power, however small it may be?

I would put the ballpark at 5 or less horsepower for losing both.

Yes. Even if the AC isn't on it takes a certain (small) amount of power to turn the belts and pullies, and the PS is constantly eating power.

bolt-ons, ctr cams, obd1+ hondata, and some tuning would get you there.
