Default Confused on S2000 Models - uk

So I got a 2005 s2000 a "ap2"

BUT

The UK model never got the 2.2 engine right?

So its still a 2.0?

So should I be buying kits for 2.0 engines?

Also where can I get ricks headers?

Correct that you have a 2.0 but to be sure look at your tachometer, if the redline is 9k its a 2.0, if the redline is 8k then its a 2.2

Most of the aftermarket parts are universal (work on both engines) but someone else with more expertise can be more specific

Rick doesn't make headers anymore so you will need to buy one used. That said you only need 1 header, no need for multiple headers since the car has an inline 4

I prefer "headers," so I keep a spare one in the trunk.

What about the s2000 ultimate edition, was that Japan only?
I mean we reference in the US AP1,AP2, and CR and the Ultimate Edition is like the 2009 over the sea CR edition with a soft top I believe? Just remember seeing it once on an article online.

The Type-S is like the CR with a soft top and was only available in Japan. The Ultimate edition was only available in Europe and was a white exterior red interior S2000 with a hardtop. I think "Ultimate" was supposed to be ironic or some weird british humor I don't get.
