hondata is expensive as hell but well worth it........ you can buy the hondata upgraded ecu for your car and feel/hear vtec hit as hard as a bizzatch.

No, just for the engine, I know I said car, but I meant engine.

a AFC and dyno tuning would work for you. Hondata is great for more heavily modded cars.

Just my opinion FWIW.
