Out of interest - I didn't do a dyno before the mods - what would it have been? I know specs say around 237kw - but thats probably under ideal conditions.

BTW - dyno done at the coast.

There was quite a big jump after VTEC for around 1000RPM
you can expect 241.790hp with those mods but it will feal like 242 even.

various import tuning magazines have researched power gains on the S2K through the kind of bolt ons you've installed. You should see btw 4-8 hp gain. I don't think that translates much to actual power increase you feel but it should add to the driving enjoyment.

Look at it this way, if you decide to get a turbo most of those mods can be an asset. You'll loose the K&N obviously but the rest would probably be beneficial.

Wasnt expecting a huge gain - bit was slightly dissappointed. As long as its in normal power range and not under performing - I'm happy.

I'll upload the dyno chart as soon as I scan it.

Should have bought gears instead saved a couple of bucks and you would have a bigger grin on your face when driving. For the money gears are hard to beat they may not add HP but they sure do change how the car accelerates.

The car had Rick's Final gear in - but the installer stuffed up and it was reverted to stock

Are the results fairly standard though?

Obviously installation is everything. I have been on 4.44's for 14k miles.

from all the dynos and such ive seen with boltons like yours peak wise you should be seeing ~10 whp and some decent midrange power.

Switch to a single if your really concerned about getting the most flow from your exhaust for sure.
