ASM of course. The best looking piece of CF intake, I have ever seen grace an S2000.

Just looking at it makes me

AEM makes power on a dyno, sounds good, and is relatively cheap. but you have to worry about hydro locking the car due to the low filter placement.

The k&n or Comptech are also good choices make documented power, sounds good and doesn't have the issues with hydro locking because the filter is placed closer to the motor.

Spoon style snorkel is a good choice for no hydro lock issues OEM looks and the ram air effect witch should make more power at speed.

The mugen, j's, and asm intakes basically take the spoon snorkel up a notch providing better airflow than the oem box+ snorkel, plus there all carbon fibery and thats always a good thing. Cost is the issue here, just descide what your priorities are and what your budget is then make your best choice.
