Default Need your Help What can I do to go faster

I have a certified 00' with a 100K bumper to bumper warrenty I do not want to void. As of now I have a comptech intake, Cat back titanium single exhaust, Tein S Type Springs and a ground kit. What else can I do to make this thing go faster without voiding my warrenty??

Please Help I have lost for the last time.

dont think theres much you can do... if you have engine problems later... they blame it on your intake or exhaust... depending on what warranty work your trying to have them do...

this is the way honda warranties work. at least the 5 dealerships i went to.

you should be able to put a comptech supercharger with stock boost (5-6 psi) and still be under warranty. Some dealerships actually install the supercharger!

This is for street racing? Corvettes are much faster, no modifications required.

IF u get intake and it suckz in water your screwed. also pretty much if u get turbo, supercharger, ecu upgrade, cams, valves and springs, pretty much anything that changes the the factory performance. thats what the guyz at honda told me so your very limited. but they told me exhaust was ok.

and most honda dealers will not install performace parts do to lialbility

If you want a noticable change in your straight line speed FI or nitrous are really your only options with FI being the preferable option.

Did you buy the S2K to be a fast straight line car? If so Im afraid you made the wrong choice. Your best mod maybe to buy an Evo.
