Hey today I started wondering if the mugen intake system or the k&n fipk will get the most out of a s2k??

Dun worry I'm not going to look at the price or anything ONLY interested in torque and hp

K&N fipk intake: http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/me...a_S2000_Intake

Thanks in advance!

 

You're not going to feel any major differences between them if any, so I would choose the FIPK since it's cheaper, will give you a little power, and looks decent. Also it's direct bolt on while with the Mugen intake you have to cut the underside of your hood just to make it fit.

 

i just thought: mugen's alooot expensive... think its bring kinda alot of extra power compared to the K&N. seems not, glad you changed my mind , have to say the mugen one looks awesome but sinds im not driving with my hood open i won't see it anyways up we go for the K&N!

 

so i guess the price tag finally scared you away from only being interested in horsepower/torque huh...

 

nope care only about preformance but why pay more money if you will get the same results? if you sit @ a bar and you look @ the price of a beer and sez $10, and you know around the corner of a street they ask about $2 for the same beer and same brand 100% the same, why in Gods name would you ever buy this $10 beer while you know you get the same.

 

That's a little irrelevant since the intakes aren't the same brand.. But I guess I understand your logic..

But if you really want a difference you'll feel, ditch those 18's for some decently lightweight 17's

 

If you only care about performance you should go FI or get nitrous. I have a 75 wet shot on my S and it's sweet.

 

Thanks but what does FI mean? And what nitrous is preffered??

EDIT: found out what it means was thinking about that will do it one day..... One day

 

FI mean Forced Induction (turbo or supercharger). NA mods aren't going to get you very far, and if you want a good amount of power you will probably end up spending just as much as you would on a used supercharger and make a ton more power. Nitrous would be the cheaper option as long as you aren't spraying it all the time since fill-ups would end up costing you quite a bit. If you went through a 10lb bottle every couple months you will spend less than $500 a year on refills which isn't bad at all. You can run a 75 wet shot safely and make just as much power as a basic supercharged s2k, but with nitrous you will have more torque which is always nice. I have a very nice ZEX kit that is only activated at wide open throttle and I also have a window switch that makes it so it only activates from 4000-8500 RPM's for safety. If you want to look into nitrous more take a look at my guide. You will spend much less than a used supercharger and make just as much as a bolt on basic supercharger for far less with nitrous.

Used basic supercharger used ~$2500
Safe nitrous kit and make just as much power but with more torque ~$1000 depending on the options you get with it, I have a ton of extras (window switch, AEM fuel rail, AEM wideband, bottle opener, warmer, purge, ect..) and I spent right around $1000

Maybe he's and all motor purist. Not everybody likes FI, yet people push it hard core on this forum.
