I wonder about Hytech headers?

Are you forgetting I have those ITBs in my car, tuned by UL? He had 4.77 GEARS! That car wasn't tuned right, I have his maps to prove it. Ask UL and anybody else that has seen my car running on those maps, Art provided. No need to roll your eyes at me, you seriously trying to tell me that you guys going for a little joyride have more experience with the set-up then I do? I've driven from NYC to Tenn. I probably have more hours logged with ITBs on an S2000 then anyone in this hemisphere. But, obviously that doesn't account for anything. That video IMO was all noise, he (haninman) based his experience on that video, which I've seen and IMO proves nothing. Which I stated all along, which I proved in the end. The ITBs don't give this great immense hp that everyone thought they did. There is a small gain, which can be attributed to a number of things, like proper tuning with an EMS. There is no way to substantiate if the ITBs do much if anything, since you will need an EMS to run them.
Hytech makes a good product, but I just don't know that there is that substantial a gain for it to be worth while. The components listed in that kit isn't going to be the holy grail in getting hp out of a NA s2000.

"it pulled alot harder than your everyday S2K."
Thats what I was trying to prove. I'm aware that ITB's don't produce a mega-hp, but its enough to be a whole lot faster than a normal S2k with bolt-ons, whether the car was tuned right or not.
And btw, Congratulations for having the most seat time in an S2k with ITB's.
If I had a trophy, I'd give it to you!

Actually, it's a drivers race. As a matter of fact, the power is made from 3k-7k. Which isn't really the powerband for a drag race. A stock S with gears has the potential to beat it.
