Testpipe/HFC, then header (Js, Toda or ASM), then EMS (tuned of course)
Well, the order is not that relevant, most important is that you get the 3 mods.
Oh yes.. you can also get at the end some intake and/or exhaust (to get some nice sound and weight savings)

Test pipe gets my vote!

Wrong. Just a tune on a 100% OEM motor will show better gains than any bolt on you do on s2k's. Adding any bolt on without an EMS in it's future, is just silly.
I agree that an EMS is the best bang for the buck, if performance is your goal. However, some people want an intake or exhaust for sound. If so, the PWJDM intake is NOT the right choice, since it is super quiet. You also won't make much power with any intake unless you have a way to lower VTEC and tune.
