I pretty recently bought my s2000 and my funds arent too high to make extreme performance upgrades, what are some inexpensive mods? I see fake spoon intakes on ebay anyone out there with one? need some feedback?

 

You can always buy yourself a nice civic.

 

inexpensive mods are learning how to drive a rwd car properly.

 

You can put Inexpensive and s2000 in the same sentence.

 

^ Not with a straight face.

 

save your money for insurance.

LOL!!

And as everyone else has said, you can't go cheap on the S2K. You don't buy a sports car and think "what cheap parts can I buy". If you want to think that... refer to the quote above....

but paying for track days can put a significant dent in the wallet as well

but it's worth it

 

when i say inexpensive i mean simple mods that will give me the most horsepower for the money? im just not looking to spend 2,000 dollars on a exhuast maybe 1000 but not 2

 

haha how broke are you, to spend $1000 on an exhaust i really wouldnt say thats a "cheap" upgrade

 

If you want real HP gains, you need to be boosted. Everything else is very small increases (if any).

 

Gears. 4.77's. Best bang for the buck right there. BUt, you will spend some cash money grips.

 

yeah that would be all my money if i bought an exhaust but im looking for smaller things that would give me alittle more power im thinking going kevlar under the hood with a spoon intake, kevlar radiator shroud, and spoon spark cover

 

anyone have any photos of under the hood with complete carbon fiber or kevlar pieces

 

headers, exhaust, and intake will barely net you any horsepower. if you want to feel a noticeable difference, goto http://www.hardtopguy.com and order the 4.77 final drive gear kit. it'll cost you around $1400 from him (after returning your diff) and if you cant install it yourself expect another $150-300 or so for someone else to swap the diffs. an s2k with 4.77's will keep up with a supercharged s2k til about 3rd gear then it will start to drop off.

bang for the buck, the gears cant be beat. your rpms will be raised ~600-700 RPM in each gear.
