Alright thanks i was pretty set on duel exhausts cause i just thought they were always better and sounded nicer, but i guess im wrong. I will for sure now look at both single and duel.

In the past 4 years I have been modding my car I would say my 4.77's have made the biggest difference. 1st gear thru 3rd are noticeably quicker and highway passing at 75mph+ is effortless. Gears might not sound cool, make power or have any bling you can show off but they definitely make it much more fun to drive the car.

As far as bolt on's you really won't get whopping numbers out of entry level products. Then again if you start getting the more 'ballin' parts you're spending the same amount of money on those parts which +/- you can get for a used supercharger system, etc...

For a single, HKS Hi-Power. $565 and 75mm. Throw in a 70mm test pipe and you are golden.

Search search search.

Cold air for the intake. If you don't want to hassle with the filter go with the K&N FIPK. I'd personally go with Hytech for the header/test pipe but it all depends on your budget. I'd also go with with the HKS 75mm for the exhaust.

It's funny hearing people say minimal gains from an exhaust. The H22 guys said the same thing 3 years ago. Then someone posted up a dyno of a 2.5" vs a 3"(stock internal H22A). The results were very interesting to say the least. The H22, B-series and K-series guys swear by 3" but the s2000 guys, in general, are just to ignorant to see past the lies of back pressure/exhaust velocity. I wish I had the funding to do a back to back compairison to put the lies at to shame.

If you want to make your car a track racing car then get cold air intake, mugen or j's headers and any single 70mm-75mm exhaust HKS power, T1R. (lose weight). turbo or supercharger in future...

If you want to make your car daily driver keep it stock or you can get K&N fipk, any headers, any 70mm dual exhaust like Greddy, T1R, invidia. (not a track car so weight don't matter and noise/fast response more important.)

For both worlds get lighter rims and pick the right tires take a driving class!!!
