Default New here, first s2k

Hey guys. I finally got my first s2000. It's a red 2001 with ap2 front bumper. It already has tein s techs, and injen intake. It also has grey/gunmetal honda factory wheels from the CR s2k (five spokes)

Plans.... Not too much, I'm happy with it. I'd like to find a stock airbox assembly and get rid of that intake, buddy club type a shift knob, MAYBE berks test pipe.

I have quite a few pictures but cannot host while here at work.

K will do!

Also figured I would go ahead and ask this here...

Think I could get $150 or so out the injen intake?

I found a CT intake with the CF heat shield for a little over 300. I like the semi-stock look but the aggressive carbon fiber flash of the heatshield. That way, after I sell the Injen I will have spent just a little bit more than getting all of the stock airbox stuff anyways.

Maybe I found a stock airbox

I've been really debating on exhaust.. I know the good stuff is going to start around 500 bucks which honestly, is too much for me to commit to parts when It could go towards the loan.

I love the look of the stock exhaust but would like a louder note so I am considering a berks test pipe. I live in Alabama. Who cares about cats anyway??? It's fairly cheap and the sound clips I have heard are pretty freakn nice for a 125 ss pipe.

The only other option I've seen (that I like in the price range) is the Megan drift spec which looks interesting, but you do get what you pay for. It runs about 350.

Any suggestions?


Also, didn't make it home until late. I emailed the pics to my email address only to realize that there is no image uploading supported, only image link.. So here I am at work again without a way to host haha. And thanks for the warm welcome!

Test pipe will definitely liven it up a bit for sure and get you a few more hp. You can also check out the classifieds here a keep an eye for a nicely priced used exhaust in your price range. Exhausts are always being sold on here so good deals pop up all the time.
