I feel pretty good about every modification on the car. Knowing that, I don't think I'm going to remove anything, which means I only have three points left.

I know this is an old thread, but if you're still looking to burn 3 points, I'd go with an intake and a VAFC. My AEM CAI v1 gave a nice 7-9hp bump from 5850-6500RPMs and a consistent 5hp gain from 7100 pretty much to redline. When I subsequently tuned w/ a VAFC, it didn't get me much on the low end, but I picked up another 10hp from 8300-redline (where the power starts to drop off because the stock tune is so rich). You can probably also lower your VTEC crossover a bit and pick up some power there if you need it.

What happened to Brady? Great write ups but left me wanting more.

I found a the perfect car for this: A white, mint condition 2003 with 19K miles.

I just noticed this error - your car is an AP2 (2004 or later).

So, how is the build going? Still planning to go to Nationals? If so, you're likely to meet a strong S2000 driver from down here in Florida. Good luck with the competition!

If you look inside the car (page 2), you'll see it has an AP1 interior. This car has had the light and bumper conversions done.

Brady no longer has this car as he sold it. He is now driving a Integra Type R.

The car is a 2003 with AP2 body parts on it, so it is a disguised AP1.

Gotcha, the body kit and wheels fooled me. Too bad the car is no longer being developed.

Are the any lips (not full splitters) that you NASA guys have used that you have actually noticed a difference with? I would ask Brady is he noticed a difference with the lip but it didn't seem like he tracked the car without it...
