for the sake of everyone else on the road, don't run open headers. it's incredibly loud and obnoxious, sort of like that drunk chick that nobody wants to get with at a party. don't be that guy. it won't make your car that much faster. run some nice headers and a full exhaust with a high flow cat/test pipe and you'll make plenty of power.

posts like these are a sign that s2000s are coming down in price. it won't be much longer until neon lights has it's own sub forum.

Yeah youll actually loose power with open headers on the S2k. Tried it as a joke when I was putting my testpipe on ... Huge power loss, sounds like shit, and is so loud you'll want to shoot yourself.

i did it when i installed my header and exhaust. needed to move the car off the wood blocks and jack it up from the rear.

The noise shook my house, woke up my girlfriend and nearly made me deaf
