If you got a supercharger, I don't think any exhaust/header will make much of a difference. Horsepower gains will be very nominal, you won't feel anything. Right now, you're gonna get it for more looks than anything else. But, Spoon, J's, Amuse... any single outlet exhaust seems to gain the most benefit. Not too many benefits from a dual. I've asked many a people about this too... They all seem to say to go with whatever you like best... since you have a supercharger already...

the one thing you save with the exhaust is the weight savings...and gain the sound factor....there really isn't much hp to be gained. the best you could do would be a single pipe exhaust but even then you're not gaining much

I think your mistaken Swurv,

I have a Spoon N1 Exhaust, and felt a major difference. Oh and at high rpm's is where the car shined! I would recommend looking into the Spoon or the J's Racing. Mingster at Import Develpment hooked me up with the Spoon.

usually with FI, breathing mods help out a lot. when you are pushing more air in and out of your engine it needs bigger inlets and outlets to keep up, thus a header and exhaust on a SC'd S2000 would de.f yeild bigger gains than a NA S2000. The more free flowing, the better...

If I'm not gaining any HP then I rather keep my stock exhaust and
save some money .

You will gain HP, but very little. Like I said, you have a supercharger already, you won't actually feel that gain at all. Shoot, people WITHOUT a supercharger can barely feel the power gain. Do a search and read up, you'll find many different opinions...
