I did some temperature measurements comparing ambient air temp to air entering the air box of my 2000 S2K and found intake air to be about 25 deg above ambient which translates into about 5% reduced air density (less oxygen/less power). I made my own extension and the temperature differential is gone, thus, power up.

More info on request.

Additionally, a high-capacity clutch, featured in the 6-speed manual transmission, results in exceptionally smooth and quiet shifting.
Could this mean Honda put a new clutch design/material in the 2003s?

Isn't there a black box behind the engine coolant reserve that is missing in that engine bay picture?

Did they change anything else in that engine bay besides the air duct. I have a red and that just looks dif in the picture, like the made it less complicated and hid stuff or something. Or is it just me??
