Yes it's worth it. If you have something to tune with it...you won't notice much difference with I/H/E. It's helpful if you need to dial in a cam or something. And also...piggybacks are never as good as standalones.

Definitely something to do down the road. Save your money. The V-AFC helps you extract all the possible horsepower from your setup, and helps it run smoother. You don't need that for just I/H/E.

since it seems your going the naturally aspirated route. if it was my car i would do it in this order

after i/h/e
pullies
cam,valve spring's, retainer's, and a port&polish, valve job if you have th cash
vafc
intake manifold
throttle body
pistons, rods and bottom end balancing
maybe an ignition if you have money to blow

If it were me, I'd start saving now for a K20C swap because I doubt you'll ever see much power out of those 7th Gen Civic motors by going NA.

But my car has only 3600 miles on it and i dont want to do a swap i want to get as much as i can out of this engine. I think i will go the route that I LIKE NAKED GIRLS said to do. I think that will be best.
