Default tuning the s2000

hey guys, i have a password JDM intake, HKS header, berk high flow cat, J's 70rs duel...... for now.
later will be putting a cam in it.

but for now just tune with those bolt ons... What computer should i use. RELIABLE and good results is what im after. but most of all reliability. car will be tracked and cant afford issues.


any input welcome.

thanks guys

if you plan on going with a cam... ull def need a stand alone to get the most out of it.... i would recommend and aem V2 EMS... wouldnt tune it till you got the cam installed. although you will see minimal gain i would sell that intake and save for a supercharger set up your already a third there... if you want to stay NA i would go with a greddy emange or vafc2 simply to use simple to tune and maximizes bolt ons just fine (lose the cams idea, not worth it honestly) i would then save for FI if you need more power..

Most important info is model year. If you have an '06+ AP2, then you just need a FlashPro.

AEM EMS is your easiest option.

well all of this is not all true, AEM V2 is deff a good one id rather go with the EMS4 and the boomslang harness all it is, is a smaller version of the V2 and its a universal unit, but since boomslang has made the harness its the same thing as the V2 just smaller. and cheaper the savings alone will pay for the cam setup and the cam setup is probably the best bang for buck mod for the NA setups $540 at extremepsi with overnight shipping for BC stage 2 cams. ive scene my buddies S2k pull out 12whp and 9wtq w/o tuning and im dying to see his gains with tune from ems4. but to each his own NA isnt meant for everybody. i personally think its a great idea getting cams and remeber upgrading valvetrain would be needed. EMS4 with boomslang will be my chiose and recomendation
