More prone to hydrolock....but even if you spend $2xx from the cost of your turbo setup...how far does that really put you back? If anything, you can make a suction pipe later.
My AEM V2 was like $260ish shipped. It looks ugly, but sounds really nice. Plus, it makes it easier to do oil changes, belts, etc. Plus, AEM was claiming 9whp. I have no clue if that's true. I did win a 2 races with an otherwise stock S2000.
I don't really drag race often and I didn't wanna launch the car, plus it was 90 degrees out and some other excuses that I have. I ran a 14.0 with a 2.2 60'. Not so bad. I'm sure the car can go mid/high 13s.
Plus, the performance is very consistent even on really hot days when I'm road racing. I do between 20 min and 1hr sessions.

Re: Cold air Intakes - are they worth it for the money
dude, my advice to you is to just leave the s2000 forum...especially before kyle gets on..and just for the record there slick, stock s2000's run a faster time in the quarter than a stock mustang GT does, so before you go talking some **** you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, do some research...And for the record a stock AP1 has gone 13.8 in the quarter

The cobra I raced last week must not of been one of those fast mustangs you are talking about. When I was stock I raced a stock 04 GT and beat it. mustangs run 13-14s.

Re: Cold air Intakes - are they worth it for the money
Depending on the driver, weather and launch, a s2000 can be in the high 13's stock. A mustang can also be as close as the s2000 in the 1/4 mile. Just becuase you have V8 stuck in your head, doesn't mean the GT is faster than the 4 cyl. s2000. Consider the weight as well OP. Back to topic.

Re: Cold air Intakes - are they worth it for the money
lol mustangs are as fast as or faster than S2000s stock to stock? In what contest of speed? 0-60? no. 1/4 mile? no. 60-0? no. lap times? HAHHAHA no. Maybe the newer mustangs or the factory souped up ones are faster than S2000s somewhere...
I guess the mustang is faster if you're racing to see who can bring 4 people to the grocery store faster??

And it's not really cool to start calling people liars...
I'm pretty sure that 13.6 is on an ap2 though, but I have heard of people hitting 13's in stock ap1s

If by way faster you mean...like high 13's / low 14's...then yes by all means the new mustang gts are "way faster"
