You would be making much more power with the 70mm single exhaust.

I have decided to fit first all the things that are needed in order to complete my setup before the ECU gets mapped. So... this means that radiator and exhaust gas tank etc will be fitted next as well and then once everything is on I will have the ECU transformed.

I think this is the right way to go for.

@afwfjustin
I know that the single one will be better than the dual but am thinking of fitting this, once the engine will be returned from J's Racing together with the exhaust. However, it is a long way if I will go for 2.0lt or 2.2lt.
@ssmr2t
You are always welcome. Tell me, are you related closely to Greece?

@S20004U2NV
Glad you like it!

@ideugene
Thanks mate. PM me with $$$$$$$$$$$$ needed for the ECU!

@S2000_Europe
I need more info regarding what you mention for the ECU and the immobiliser. Please clarify mate. BTW are you asking for my OEM header?

PM read and thanks. I have located an ECU locally! FINALLY!

I will delay the mapping until I fit the radiator and thermostat plus some other goodies.

Juan stop tempting me with the 2.2lt!

However I have consider another scenario. To develop my S2000 as I do know, and to get the new 2006 S2000 BUT only if Honda will bring the 2.2lt version in Greece.

Here is an update. Went to R-Spec yesterday and I had the J's Racing Front strut bar fitted together with the Engine Torque Damper. In addition I replaced the OEM heatshield with the J's heatshield for the ETD, and also got the CF radiator cover trimmed and fitted. Now the engine bay is so beautiful!

I had a run yesterday on the streets and on some nice route with plenty curves and I must say that I am impressed with the ETD and the front strut bar. More spefic the ETD changes the way the power is transfered on the road. Once you step on the accelarator the response of the power transfered is immediate and the gears are kicking the power immedietely once you shift. Even my girlfriend noticed that I did something to my car.

As for the front strut bar am very pleased once I go through quick turns/curves left to right (sudden change of direction). The car feels more accurate (slightly and I cannot describe it) and the confidence created before & while cornering is increased in my opinion. To be honest I was not expecting that since the S2000 is already solid in this respect, but I would highly recommend those latest additions.
