Cool New member...s2k in near future!

Hello fellow Honda owners. i currently own a 2006 civic Si (pics below), and plan to purchase an s2000 as a second car down the road, so I thought I would register here @ s2ki to learn about the s2k, and what to look for when buying one used.












**THIS DYNO WAS WHEN I WAS RUNNING A TEST PIPE AND DC EXHAUST AS OPPOSED TO MY NEW SETUP**

Mods:

Engine:

-DC5R Valve Cover
-Carbon Fiber Spark plug cover
-Mugen resvior cover
-Hondata IMG
-AEM SRI

Exhaust:

-DC Race Header
-Greddy EVO2

Suspension:

Tein S-techs
SPC Full adjustable camber kit

Interior:

Comptech Short Shifter
DC5R shift-boot
Mugen JDM Door sills

Exterior:

4300K HIDs (Matsushita Ballasts, same found in the G35)
Authentic RED "H" badges front and rear

...future mods are Hondata reflash, and some Exterior bits.

..saving the real power for my s2000! none the less, my Si is pretty fast and I have beat'n one 2001 s2k from a roll, thats about it. Feel free to comment, thanks

If you want to "beat" that Civic Si in revs you "need" an AP1

a little no offense but with all your mods now on your si a stock S should still be able to beat you!

hahah you're the guy that turned down the AJP turbo-kit, i see you post on the 8thcivic forums. no worry you still have an awesome looking ride.

i traded in my NBP 06 Si for an 06 s2k and lemme tell ya bro, HUUUUUUGE difference . the si was a nice car, but the s2k is a beast on a whole new level. good luck on getting an s2k, you'll love it.

not to hijack your thread but here's my old NBP

by the way, i'll probably put those wheels up for sale on 8thcivic real soon, 14lbs forged Motegi Trak Lites.

I see you live in south fl, the only suggestion I have for you is to get an after market alarm if you wanna keep your car/seats here in south fl.
