Heatsoaks arent really an issue with SRI's. There are threads here about CAI vs SRI.

^^ take me for a spin i want to see what the ORC and good tune feels like Also how do you like the NRG Hub products?
as for me:
Stevan
DC5-S
- CRSX Header
- GruppeM intake
- Fuji Powergetter
Review: these three components give a lovely deep tone with a high distinction during Vtec Crossover without any raspiness whatsoever. According to Dyno runs they have added somewhere around 8kwatw to my untuned motor with the potential for a lot more. Car is running rich with this setup.
- Innovative 60A mounts
Review: Replaced my torn OEM ones, much more direct control of the car with no laginess in braking and acceleration/clutch work. Dont even notice the Vibration anymore but there was an increase in cabin noise from the engine.
- AST 5100 Monotube Dampers
Review: Ill let you know when i finally get my new rear dampers fml
- Exedy HD clutch, Wavetrac LSD, JDM flywheel
Review: HD clutch is a little firmer then stock with a bit more aggressiveness in bite, JDM flywheel makes revv matching lots of fun and the car feels more rev happy with it considering its about 2kg lighter then the standard one. Wavetrac LSD is the best thing i have spent money on so far, exponentially more grip in cornering, i know know what carrying some exit speed feels like . Operation is completely silent and OEM maintenance.
- Enkei RPF1 with Dunlop Direzza Z1 star specs
Review: light, cheap great looking wheels, tyres are also leagues above Re001, they are getting quite worn though after about 8 months so the wear isnt the best, its hard to go back to harder tyres after becoming used to the performance. Wet grip is the best in a tyre i have seen and they have a great stiff sidewall for predictable turn in.
- Hardrace RCA, PCI offset bearings, Buddyclub camber rear arms
Review: PCI has the only real affect to the feel of the car, the front is a hell of a lot stiffer and holds its alignment much better during hard cornering. More harshness from bumps is felt t hough as there is no longer any compliance in the LCA assembly.
Mods yet to arrive:
- SWIFT springs
- Sparco fixed back seat W low rails
Cost: >$12k not including labour
Favourite mod: LSD, don't leave home without it

Ive paid for them, the short hub is here but the quick release is still on its way from the states. Should be here in the next few days though, ill post some pics when theyre on the car. The quality looks good, I just figured you pay twice as much for an equivalent Works Bell part, and i hardly ever track my car so couldnt justify the price. Wish i hadve gone the Gruppe M back when i was looking at intakes

thats true i have wanted to get the NRG kit for a while but more important expenditures always take precedence. Considering you have the Mugen intake 145kwatw is fantastic power, who did your tune? Also you should come to the CITR Annual photoshoot this weekend

Had the tune done at Hipower Racing up here in Brisbane. Where abouts is the CITR photoshoot? Sydney im guessing... damn

Only mods I've felt that have been well worth the money are:
- Stiffer engine mounts
- Lightweight flywheel
- K-pro + Tune
- Front and rear sway bars
I've found that everything else doesn't really work to it's full potential unless you've got the above mentioned mods.
Once I've got the mods that are sitting in my cupboard/shed fitted... I'll update again.

Just a word out for you guys. How much did you end up paying for KPro-installed + tuned + reprogramming? Or did you have your ECU chipped?
My mods:
- Mugen Sports Suspension
- JDM Flywheel
- FN2R Clutch
Clutch is softer than DC5 but grabs very strong. JDM Flywheel is a dream to drive with. Very free revving. Mugen Sports is nice and firm on the street. Feels like Koni/Eibach combo on my mates CL9.

Just depends if you buy new or 2nd hand and what mods you have done to the car.
You can get a 2nd hand K-pro for around $1200, for a full tune (Intake, headers, exhaust) you are looking at around $800... again this depends on the tuner.
But at a guess, the cheapest you could get away with for a tuned K-Pro is around $2k.
