Will PM you with some more details.

I done a bit of shopping about before I bought one and it's supposed to be one of the quietest exhausts on the market for the S2000, but it does drone from around 2500rpm to 4000rpm so I decided to take it off. I was told if I buy headers and a sport cat then the drone might go away but am not wanting to spend another 2 grand upgrading the headers and cat for an extra 12bhp!!!
Ive been bored, so been scouting through youtube watching random videos.
Came up with this very basic vid of an S2000 accelerating. But my does it sound fantastic.

Judging by the title of the video and the title screen, I'm gonna go for an AEM CAI.
Must be more than that!! Can't get that noise with just an induction kitEdited by hondafanatic on Monday 23 May 00:12

You most certainly can. Take the airbox lid of your S2K and you'll get close. With CAIs you get a real 'zingggg' as you the Vtec changeover kicks in (yo).
Ah well my mistake, I thought it sounded like it had more done to it than an induction kit!! Not sure I would drive about with the airbox lid off but I might buy myself one of them kits. Edited by hondafanatic on Monday 23 May 00:12

You called?
Heatsoak is an issue - could easily lose 10bhp doing that. Bigger issue for me is accelerated deterioration of the air filter, as it'll get more crap in it.
So the solution is you get a spare airbox lid, cut the front half off it, and replace with wire mesh - a discussion I had with Mikey and a couple of others on S2k suggested this would be a 'usable' alternative...

I think the only Mod i'll do to mine to start with is K&N Fipk, Ive been told it sounds pretty similar to the likes of AEM CAI etc, but its easier to install and doesnt run the risk of hydrolock (Another can of worms). Plus a friend with a EP3 CTR has the K&N and it sounds pretty fruity without being boomy and droney. The last thing I want is a boy racer drone, so i may steer clear of exhausts.

I know it'll be in my head, but I'm sure throttle response it a tad better and the noise is certainly better, although not as growly as 'lid off' or CAI options.
^^^^I know I know. You are all marveling at my technical descriptions. What can I say? Some of us just 'get it'.
