Just keep an eye on the fs forums. I bought one locally recently for $800. The 1052 model.
I got mine off of here for $875 about a month ago.

And BTW, there is nothing wrong with the 1012 models either. And it would be a bit cheaper.

Been down this road on an integra... do it right. Learn. But for gods sake, dont use your s2000 to figure this out... Build it right, or pay for it twice. 1000$ for an AEM EMS is alot cheaper than 5k for a new engine, then have to rebuild everything again.... pick your poison mate

where are you located? Just google AEM and on there site you can find certified vendors/retailers of their products, start there on your quest to find a qualified tuner, it just takes a little leg work...

and don't forget..you gotta pay to play

The pic is to illustrate that it's not cheap to go NA, in my opinion it's more fun and reliable and it's not a route most take when tryin to make horsepower, an I like to be different
