i mean this nicely, but you're going to have to search and read about getting horsepower out of your car. best way is with better flowing intake and exhaust + a tune of some sort. if you have a 06+ s2000 get a flash pro.

as for exhaust, the n1 is way too loud in my book. i have the q300 and love it, it was just way louder than i expected it to be after reading about it. now i have grown into loving the q300 and couldn't be without it. here is a vid with how it sounds on my 04 ap2. enjoy and welcome

thank you for your help skkppy. I think im going wait on adding that horsepower. but will surely think abt q300 as invidia N1 is way too loud for me as well.
does a cool air intake increase the horsepower

The sound difference between an N1 and Q300 is large. I have a Q and have followed an AP1 with the N1. On a loudness scale of 10, the N1 is easily a 9 and the Q is probably a 4. Don't bother with the Tsudo as it's just an N1 copy.

Awesome video skkppy!

I notice a bit of rasp (may just be the vid), are you running a HFC or TP?

same here, when i first got the car with the q300. i expected it to be quieter. but NOW i've grown to the sound and used to it!

and to the op... there is no such thing as "exhaust fan".

N1 causes headaches and kills your eardrums. The q300 is a lot quieter

What's the best place to order the Q300s in terms of service and pricing? Any vendors here in particular?

Trying to decide between the burned tips or just regular polished. Any opinions?

I just bought a q300 w/ti tips from Dennis @ Evasive Motorsports. Price was a little bit more expensive than ebay, but just by about $15. They offer free shipping with it and their customer service is top notch. Plus, its always nice to help out a quality company and not some dirt bag off ebay.
