Add the honey after primary fermentation has about ended. It will stir the fermentation up again but will leave a bit more flavor as not as much of the aromatics are being stripped out with the primary CO2 production. Best is to add the honey in 2 or 3 smaller doses a few days apart. You could thin the honey down a bit with some boiling water for easier mixing into the beer. To compensate for the bit of extra water added brew at a slightly higher gravity and IBU.
You may want to use a secondary when adding the honey, but it's not really needed. Dry hop after the last honey addition and cold crashing, or in the keg.
Even then, you may have a hard time finding honey flavor in the end. You could include some Honey Malt in the grist to increase the honey experience, 8 oz should be enough.
