ok smart arse.. no reasonably affordable mods. You've probably spent more than an SC kit would cost on that race car...

are you going to trackday it a bit? I'm paranoid about cars not turning a wheel. Came to work in my SC one today haha.. i'm more deaf than i was when i got up

We have a k&n fipk and I trimmed the pipework so it fits snugly and growls rather than howls. We also have a f type which is hard to beat for drama, but the driving experience of the S is enough, still puts a smile on my face every time I get in her

Right ..... going back to this !

Getting a k&n induction kit , 60mm decat ..... but still undersided weather to get the aem ecu and a tune ?

Ive come to the horrible decision not to charge this car , mainly due to it being mint , just turned over the 25k miles and full Honda service history. It's just too nice a car to pull apart and have the headaches associated with this major mod .

So with this in view , is it worth getting the aem ecu just to tune it n/a ?

as always I welcome peoples opinions

Good choice.

You don't need the ECU for those mods, but does give a nice power hike.

Nottm, might push it up and down the trailer a bit but no engine to drive it!

15-20 bhp / lbs ft through the rev range - really depends how much you value the increase.

Its not a big difference. It a good building block if you modify further.
