With more fuel to the combustion chamber you need ait to burn it efficiently.
Meaning you need forced induction.
On d17 - only turbo, no superchargers.
So, the answer is - no - unless you go turbo.

i would have to disagree with you on your last statement... having a good tune without the turbo should increase hp slightly... not as significantly as with some sort of FI method but it will yield gains... just like intake, header, and exhaust... you're not going to notice a big difference in gains with those three mods but they are still gains...

yea, i agree, u should be able to get better gains with I/H/E and stand alone tuning using an EM, I've heard of ppl doing this to S2K's, I know we're running D17's but yea, every little bit counts.

I agree, no questions
Since this post is in FI forum I was inclined towards FI...

...But on the other hand, he is best to sell injectors and buy a header I guess...

There is no benefit to running rsx injectors with a stock d17. With all of the bolt ons you can put on it, you will not make enough power to need a larger injector than stock.

I remember seeing dyno's on the aem forum for 1030 testing on stock civics and they made over 100 whp but I can't remember how much more.

Then the dyno numbers are ridiculously high. There is no way that you're only losing 10 hp from the crank to the wheels.
