def def def NOT a test pipe. Get a berk HFC and it will perform just as good if not better. Trust me all that "raspyness" and test pipe awful smell is not worth the extra 1HP gain.....

RPF-1's
big brake kit
Aero - CR lip and canards up front, CR wing or gtc-200 in the back
coil overs - kwv3s or something similar to dial in depending on your current down force
supercharger
Full cage - a real one, welded in.

Since you're getting a SC kit, I would suggest a clutch and flywheel. An upgraded stereo is always nice too.

still don't understand how one can tell you what mods to get without knowing what your goals are with the car. going to +1 the guy who said to stop spending money on the car...unless you are turning into a track car then awesome.

Well, considering I know nothing else about him other than he wants a supercharger and RPF-1s. I think he'll need better brakes assuming he plans to do anything even close to a autocross, trackday, or just driving hard through some twisty mountains. More power = higher speeds dfaster (obviously), so that means the stock brakes will fade quicker if he's driving hard. Outside that, he'll be able to reach higher speeds then less equipped s2000s on the same turns so I'd recommend some down force via aero mods. With the extra down force being applied to the car, I think it would need some coilovers to keep it planted.

But, if OP plans on doing nothing but hard parking and treating his s2k like a 900hp dyno queen supra that only does roll races. Then I think it'd be fine as it is.
