Default fuel filter

I was just wondering if there is a different higher flowing fuel filter that can be used on 1990 acura ls engines? I know the nissan guys with the 240s use the 300zx filter on them for higher flow.

You dont need a "higher flowing" fuel filter for 99% of honda/acura applications.

I believe aem makes one but I am not sure of how it performes versus a factory filter.

you must be reading the wrong book.

I know guys making 300+whp on stock honda filters....Unless your getting it for the Bling factor, cause you wont see a lick of HP gain reguardless of what you think.

Well I bought the book at a used store so there are a few pages missing lol thanks for the input though. I just needed to replace it so I figured I might as well get the best for the application which at this point looks like stock will due. I'm looking to be pushing about 225-250 whp so I guess I'll be fine.

Factory honda fuel filter, factory honda distributor, factory honda spark plug wires etc... Factory honda parts work better then 90% of aftermarket parts man

I was actually looking into the MSD ignition and like the ss coil with NGK plug wires and NGK iridium plugs as a start. I want to run a turbo setup with like 8 lbs because I want this to still be a reliable daily driver. I think I should be able to reach approx. 250 hp with this setup and a few other things.
