Megan exhaust. I picked it up dirt cheap used just for fun though. Went back to my spoon single less than 24 hours later. That exhaust is pure bliss. Now on a Berk 3 inch and haven't looked back but the Spoon isn't getting sold.
Other crappy mod was a axial flow short shifter. OEM with a voodoo knob is the best combo I've ever tried.

Sometimes I regret all of them, lol, the S2000 stock is a great car, with nothing to worry about.
For example:
-I have purchased 5 exhausts, currently using 70mm ASM Single and thinking about going back to stock, there is no such thing as an aftermarket exhaust with no

Everyone said that the 70mm ASM had no drone.......

rev hard turbo kit and mishimoto radiator. I have had to replace everything on the kit minus the intercooler piping (which I had to modify to fit) and the intercooler. everything else was crap to begin with and was replaced or broke and was replaced with something better. and the mishimoto because it is just plain crap (they have amazing customer service though- as much as i do not like their quality I have nothing but good things to say about the companies customer service policies) my first one blew three holes in various welds across the radiator, my second one came with defective radiator cap and smells of coolant constantly (no leaks for a year and a half) but everytime I drive it smells like coolant (I think it is the nipple thing for the overflow tank)
I love my tein hood dampers

Wow good stuff... I regreted puting 18'' wheels on my first s2k, ate up mpg bad (no biggy) but also sucked up soo much tq from the little f20. 17'' is just right. I also regret puting tein H techs on my last s2k, although i loved them for their huge drop and comfy ride, i feel like i ruined the natural geometry of the oem susp, would def do coil overs next time. As for other cars the list is too long but a few would be no "generic" or ebay parts period... Weapon R intake on my Acura CL-S sounded like a 260hp Orek vacume cleaner. Some others would be doing a custom exhaust on my nissan sentra SER Spec V. Never heard anything so ricy in my life, eventually switched to a Nismo, way better.

Invidia exhaust. Sounded great when you stomped on it, but droned LOUD at all other times.
I'm happy it got destroyed when I was rear-ended in my old S, and got a "refund" for it to get something else.

I regret my shift knob, wont say which one. Also regret my AEM v2 intake. Had to cut that hole, and when I do brake ducting it will be in the way. The hole wasnt a big factor for me, but not being able to run brake ducting is huge.
