Everyone has their own opinion on what works for NA
I decent power producing exhaust for the S2k wont cost $1000..it will cost $600-700...AEM intake will cost $300..or about the same for K&N...
As for the test pipe...it netted me 1whp on my F20c with I/E...but it was worth it to get rid of the annoying exhaust drone.
headers.....we have shown that the OEM is hard to beat once you add EMS.....with out EMS you can gain 5-10whp over stock
As for max whp for bolt ons....we have seen 235whp on our dyno..which is roughly 20-25whp on the DBW cars.....
Tuning doesn't really add peak, but makes a ton in the mid range by allowing VTEC to go as low as 3500rpm.......
AEM EMS/Hondata KPRO/Flash Pro.....worth every penny and should be the first mod for any serious build NA or FI......
I for one, want more NA power for track days...225whp would be awesome out of my F20c..and still super reliable... To me FI is not an option for a car that sees at least 500 miles a week of harsh street driving and 75-100 track miles a month.....
my 2 cents

The poster before mentioned it can be a strong upgrade
in speed by going smaller(help 0-100).
My car is just a DD...never track..so over 100 is kinda mute
for me anyway....would love to increase 0-100.
Any resource areas to read more about the gearing options?
thanks!

2k gets everything listed in my sig with the tune... Trying to sell the car.. Best NA setup I've owned
251hp and 180lb.ft. to the wheels is impressive for NA...
so much for the FI types that say nothing can be gained.

you realize in some instances dynapack dynos read incredibly high. shutter the thought that this may infact be one of those instances
if its too good to be true, than it prolly isnt.
otherwise, his car is the strongest bolt on tuned s2k EVAR.

1. walk over to car
2. remove wallet from pocket, some use back pocket, i prefer front pocket
3. remove money from wallet
4. throw it at the car
5. walk away.

Well the car was 226 stock, when 240 with all the bolt ons, and 251 after the tuning.. The graph in my sig is comparison of just bolt ons vs tuning.. Whether it reads high or not, same dyno for all 3 and significant gains throughout
