Haven't driven the S yet, but i'm sure it's perfect with the extra power..
The exhaust i'm running is an Arqray single stainless (JDM and popular in the lotus world). They also make an single exit in titanium, a dual exit, and a few other pieces. It's soooooooo loud.
No other mods for now, but i'm starting to think about a turbo if I decide to keep the car forever.
Unfortunately, wheel choices are verylimited due to a 4 lug bolt pattern and high offsets. At one point I was thinking of some gold 3-piece works but for now I'll stick to the lightweight TE's.
I forgot to mention that I work for Honda so PM me if you need an S or any other new Honda.
I've already helped a few members on here..

Nice taste 
How much hp your Elise has actually ?
How can you compare to the S...in street and in track ? If you had try both in those conditions, of course.
Thanks!,

Before I bought it I said to myself, how much better could it handle?? I soon drove it, fell in love, and answered my question after I took it home.. The funnest car i've owned hands down..
Is it worth approx. 15K more new? Why not..
Could you spend that extra $ in mods to make it similar? Probably.

Beautiful car 
... I was set on getting an elise for the longest time, and even had a down payment on one before they were brought over here. In retrospect, I would have lost a lot of money shortly after since I love the look of the exige. Very nice car, I love the rear panel eliminator.
