Default new s2000 mods

I just purchased an '02 s already equiped with AEM cold ain intake, and my next mod I plan to do is the exhaust. I wanted to know if anyone has Invidia exhaust, or if they recommend it or not. If not, what is another good exhaust I should look into that will give me a nice deep sound, and if possible some horsepower gain. And then I was also interested in an inline Pro turbo kit, does anyone recommend this either, I know lovefab is obviously a favorite, but it is a little pricey. The s also had megan coilovers put on, and its pretty low now, and my last mustang I had was pretty low because of a body kit etc. and I was wondering if anyone with coilovers had any trouble with speedbumps etc. or not. Thanks

P.S. I know how to use the search key, I have searched, I just wanted some input from people who have this stuff on their car and whether or not they are good or not. Thanks

-Michael

My AEM works fine. Invidia exhaust are a bit loud, and drony for some, personally I don't think it's that bad compared to mine. Regarding the turbo kit, get used to it in stock form (almost) before adding more power. It's nothing like your Mustang. The few people I know with the Megan coils like them. As for my car, having 1 finger gap in the front and 2 in the rear, I clear speedbumps and driveways with no problem.

If you want some serious power gains from an exhaust, T1R 70R will be your best bet and it looks awesome too

you will have problems with speedbumps if you dump the car. i think with a one finger gap or more all around you wont have a problem. i had an invidia before, it was f*cking loud

1 finger gap and no front lip or side skirts and you'll be good for the most of it

If you know how to drive a lowered car than your fine. If not, you better learn fast.

OK well I can't do much right now about the megan coils since they were on it when I bought it, and maybe you guys can throw a few tips out there for driving a lowered car, I have driven a low car before, but just in case I don't know some critical secret...and I'll look into that T1R 70R exhaust, if it's not too pricey hopefully I will be adding it in about a month or so. Thanks guys

"How to Drive a Lowered Car without Knowing How:

1) Raise your car, since they're adjustable.

my friend has an Invidia exhaust on his Integra and it needs to be re-welded all the damn time.

imo it's junk, but to each their own.

Rubber hangers that are too soft would explain the break at the pipe/canister joint, but the tip too? *confused* Then again, it's an Integra.

The tip said, "F*** an Integ, I'd rather jump off this mountain cliff!"
