Using an EMS for you car is not a joke.. and not something you can just 'play' with..

when you plug in the EMS.. the cardoesn't even know how to start...you'll need to find a base map to begin.

If you haven't tuned before.. its ill-advised to play with it.. you'll probably say goodbye to your engine in no time fast..

take your car to reputable tuner... get it tuned... and THEN you can play w/ it a little...

me too
Your intial setup needs to be right if you can find someone with a similar setup maybe you can get them to share their basemap with you. That would help.

Be sure when you tune it you do it on a load dyno...you'll get a much better tune

this is not going to end well.

I installed everything on my my myself, supercharger, and everything. I took it to a good tuner to have it tuned properly

don't play around with this

Be careful dude. I had a very hard time finding a reputable AEM tuner I trusted down here. If you've got the car down for a couple days you might want to send it out to a good tuner to get it programmed with 1 or even 2 maps. Or else as mentioned Kaboom!

Simple Bring it by the shop JDM MOTORSPORTS and we can take a look at it and tune it for you, wont find anyone else down here that knows more about hondas and s2000s in general then Jared.

yea some may say he takes to long or he is expensive or he doesnt know what hes doing, but at the end of the day you get what you pay for and it gets done right the first time.

we have a few s2000s here at the shop now one on a turbo making right now 402rwhp @ 10psi, tunning this week for 450-500rwhp @ 15-18psi.

car is very reliable and is daily driven.


theres a few others on here that have good things to say about this shop.
