Nice numbers, but you'd greatly benefit from the J's 70 single exhaust. You'd probably gain another 10 horses...
crazy talk

currently my car is putting 213rwhp with KN drop in filter and spoon n1 exhaust. i want j's ecu next. i have heard i can expect 5-7rwhp from the ecu. so saying a made 7rwhp from the ecu-that would be 220rwhp. i need another 10 or so. mugen/ricks header? help. thanks for the tips....oh and more the 230 would be nice too!
Take a look at the new Honda Tuning. The S2000 in this issue is putting down 247 HP at the wheels. And the guy only has a Mugen drop in filter, Hytech header and exhaust. And also running an AEM EMS. 247 WHP NA. No FI. It's awesome.

ya but his pulls where on a dynapack. my 230 hp goal is based off a local mustang dyno that i have used every step of the way on my car. that way i can keep my #'s in check and also i can tell if a mod actually adds power.

hell when i got my vafc tuned(the first time) it was done a dynapack, after tuning with KN filter my spoon exhaust and test pipe i pull 244rwhp on that dyno. my guess is that that car would pull right around my power level or maybe 226-7rwhp on a mustang dyno/dynojet.

Louie, FWIW the Ricks/Mugen will add no peak power gain. Only midrange, which doesn't seem to be mixed in with your goals.
For peak power, you need big piping - Js header and a 70mm exhaust.

I'm interested to see what you dyno with the megan header. I've been eyeballing the J's header for awhile now, not willing to commit to the price, but if you see decent gains from this megan header, I'll probably buy one, to go with the T1R sparrow I plan on running as well.

I have the most respect for the Cali guys but that particular dynapack reads higher then any I've ever seen. Remember this is the same dynapack that pulls 240ish on a stock AP2. It's run by a great tuner who is knowledgable about s2000s but don't use it's numbers for comparison to a different dyno.
