More than one???

Engine management is next, AEM for stand alone and VAFC if youre on a budget. Also, a single sided exhuast will give you a little more power and shed some weight.

If money is no object, the possibilities are endless as far as making hp. NA, supercharged, or turbo charged.

It might help to let us know what your plans are, as far as type of use(track/street/both) and what your budget is.

Pet peeve of mine as well.


So... how many dollars to we have to work with here, and more importantly, can you drive it?

Weight is the only benefit I see, but not at all worth the cost for loosing a few lbs.

Quickly sel all your parts and do some research before buying aftermarket crap used for Civics.

i would say Apex-i VAFC good move next. we have the Comptech supercharger on ours but i think turbo would be the better move for the money and performance.

why do you say remove the header? is it just the DC or any header for the S2000, we have the comptech on ours and no loss of power or any probs.

Stop knockin the DC header unless you have a dyno chart. It can make power.

At least I know the guy and can see if he has scanned a dyno chart... Do you even know anyone that's seen dyno losses(same dyno/and temp) with the DC?

Not that I would buy it anyways... I'd save up for FI instead of throwing away money for such pitiful gains.

you can say you know a million guys with DC in his s2 and gain power but you still need to prove it with dyno chart ...
