Chip? With an 06+, you should probably start with flashpro.

You don't "chip" s2000's.... you tune them.

Buy a Hondata Flashpro, find a local tuner, go for it. I would say you could tune it yourself, but I have a feeling that might be a little bit out of your knowledge range at the moment.

LOL What? Flashpro is hands down the best $/Performance upgrade you can get on a 06+...

and it's a gift that keeps on giving. Unless you're somehow suggesting that raising ignition timing, running leaner, and bringing vtec down as far as you want it provides no benefit? At $700~ You would have to be FOOLISH not to get a flashpro if you care about performance on a 06+. Will it make you sound cooler though? No. But you'll be worlds faster than the guy who spent that $700 on an exhaust.

I'd start with the FlashPro.

Even if your completely stock, you may want to talk to the folks at e-tunez.com. The calibrations that come with the FlashPro are good ballpark maps, but these guys can give you a good, safe e-tune and have excellent customer service.

These guys are great, I was just tuned by them and the difference in driveability is huge. Much more responsive and smooth.

I'd try G-force chip. 60HP/TQ instant gain.
