correct me if i'm wrong, but from what i understand the 00-02 ap1s run richer and would see the most gains from either of the piggy back systems while on an 03 and the ap2s any piggy back system wouldnt make that much of a difference becuase they are tuned leaner...
that is true for up top.... around 8700rpms+... well for you it would be 7800+ rpms......

but with a piggy back system you can get more power under the curve... and if you drop vtec acordingly.... you hit vtec sooner... more power under the curve= faster car overall..
