I'd do AJ-R.
They've done several jobs, they have good pricing, and we all know their awesome quality, attention to detail, JDM experience, and customer service.
Alanize work is nice, but his prices and service aren't.

Does anyone know how much head porting will add? I know on B-series head it add a significant gain because there were more room for improvement. I know Alaniz is a good place to get the S2000 head to get ported. I think on his site he charges 2300 for everything for competition port job. I know to hit the 230whp head porting is a must with bolts.
So lets say
J's header - 1200
J's intake - 1100
J's 70RR - 1300
Alaniz head port * competition type * - 2300
AEM Standalone - 1300
Tuning - 500
Total of 7,700 Dollars for gains around 230-240whp.
DAMN that's alot of money. Now consider to put some gears another 400-500 bux.
WOWERZ!

Other than these simple mods, the bloody thing is bone stock.

There is a guy by the name of Jim Knapp who has an F20C in a Bonneville streamliner. It puts out 230-235 rwhp with just aftermarket ecu, intake and exhaust. He probably made the intake and exhaust himself. I think he uses the OEM exhaust manifold.

I used to launch at around 6k rpm and rip out like a bat out of hell, it was perfect. Then after my mods I would spin them just launching at 3k rpm, and now with advans in the back I can go up to like 3.5k rpm and hope to not spin them too much. But my next set of tires I'm going wider so maybe that will help. But it sucks with my new found power I cant really race from a stop any more and now only free way rolls, oh well
