I did the CDV delete and going with AP1 FW. This should fix that.

No, that's caused by the clutch delay valve (CDV) in the slave cylinder. Search on here for "CDV Delete" and you should find plenty of threads on it.
I read that entire thread a while back and i thought billman concluded that it was a combination of the heavier ap2 flywheel/ oem pressure plate/ cdv and that just deleting the cdv didnt always solve the problem.

I would assume so, since the ACT HD PP provides much more grab than the OEM PP.
That is what i was thinking.

Definitely get the clutch installed prior to doing the S/C as the engine cradle gets lowered to install the clutch. Aftermarket exhaust is not a must as the OEM is pretty good. However, your OEM cat will probably be short lived. If you do decide to go with an aftermarket header I would suggest putting it in with the clutch install as the OEM one will be unbolted to install the clutch. Might as well bolt up the new one since you already have the old one unhooked.

I put a Mishimoto radiator in mine, mainly because the neck on the OEM one broke as I was taking the upper hose off. Here in Ohio I have not been able to get mine hot enough to kick the fans on yet. If you do go with a Mishi/Koyo you will need slimline fans as the OEM ones wont clear the boost tubes.

You will probably be wanting to go to a heat range 8 plug, especially since you are in Florida.

You planning on doing the S/C install yourself? It's not terribly difficult if you know the sticky points ahead of time. You won't have any regrets with the Kraftwerks kit. The guys (Joe and CJ) at Skunk2 (the mfg rep for Kraftwerks???) are some of the best people I have ever dealt with.
Thx for replies. I currently have Tanabe Touring Dual with a test pipe. Flashpro as well. If I would see gains with say the Skunk2 alpha header I'll grab one. If the oem one flows the same then I don't want to waste money. And yes good point about header install during clutch install. I will be having the clutch n sc kit installed. Was considering driving to LHT, but I don't know if that's feasible without requesting vacation from work. So I have 2 local shops to choose from. Either Racelab Miami or KAB Customs in Sunrise.

Also, if oem radiator is fine I'll keep that. Just not sure if I should change coolant as I hear every 10 yr is a good time. This would be going on 8 yrs. and for Plugs I didn't know I needed different ones. Thx for that. Any specific plug you have used?

I'm guessing a boost gauge and oil pressure would be nice add ons as well.
i recomend SO FAR KAB customs ! Andres barriga ownder of kab customs knows a lot i think he is the one in florida that do plenty of more s2000 than any one, also you can tune the car with him . amazing guys , tel him nicolas from argentina send you. you want be disapoint bro
