New S2K Owner
Hey there, name is Ethan from CT. I just bought a used (34k miles) 2004 S2000 Saturday. It came with a Vortech Kit installed (2.5k miles on it), Cusco U-Brace & rear stb (had a front stb, but won't fit with the Vortech). This is my first sports car, not my first Honda. I also have an '03 Accord EX 4cyl Sedan as my DD. And I've also got a 2007 Aprilia Tuono 1000R for two wheel pleasures 
So, for starters I had a bunch of stuff waiting for delivery of the S2K. I already installed a Pioneer MVH-P8300BT head unit, S-pods & Kicker KS5.2's in the S-pods. Driving them is a 4-channel Fosgate amp, I've got KS6.2's for the doors that I haven't installed yet. The other night my buddy and myself installed Eibach front/rear sways bars and a Berk High-Flow cat, checked the Vortech lubricant and changed the engine oil.
I'm very impressed with the car, it is everything I dreamed it would be and more (never thought I'd have a SC'd one). Handling is superb, best I've ever driven. I took it to my buddy's dyno shop last night and she ran 316hp/214tq to the wheels. Needless to say I was pretty impressed. One thing we were discussing last night at the shop (mostly a DSM shop) was, is there any way to tune the 'Black Box'? Or will I need to go with some kind of EMS? I have a water/meth kit I'd like to install as well (have had it for a year or so, brand new). Thanks everyone. I hope to drive this beast for many years to come!!

Haha, yes it was babied. I did vacuum it out good and also cleaned/conditioned the leather. I've also prepaid for 3M clear bra install & tints. Just need the time to drop it off
