well i guess if you can sleep well at night knowing you spend 1k+ on a mod that gives you minute gains then go for gold.

Injen for the cold air, the power gain + the sound.
Didn't I just buy a Toda header off you.....? :pQuote:

S2000 was never a cheap car.
I agree with ludecrs spend alot get little or spend even more little get even more little then that.
i mean the money could be spent elsewhere. ie catback system or final drive upgrade.Quote:

Instead of the temp sensor going off the dial and deciding its going to retard timming, the CF helps keeps the intake temp down so ure car runs consistently at its optimum. Also even though the mods doesnt light up the dyno, it does improve response and helps rev a little easier.Quote:

List out all the parts you want, research on the dyno-proven gains and price that you can get it for. Calculate the dollar/kW and buy the ones with the best bang for your buck first.
Also, $1500 Toda header > $1100 GruppeM/Mugen/XXX intake.
:thumbsup:
And if ure looking at bang for buck, forget bolt ons search Final drive.U'll get more from a different Final Drive than I/H/E could give u together. If u want big power, only one way, turbo.
Ok guys I know this might not be the best place to find info but from what I come across on s2ki there isnt really any soild info to back up things im after like dyno graphs and stuff. I'm not picky about graphs but just want a indication on how each intake performs.
none of them will gain you any significant power
a few will lose power
any facts to back it up plz
plenty of threads on s2ki.com reffering to intakes man. ur just lazy haha
