I'm guessing suspension, reinforced chassis, weight savings where possible.

What I WANT: 3.5L Inline 6, 9k redline, same gear box minus the CDV....I'll mod the rest.

If i had to take a stab, i would say it would be something like the mugen SI. Maybe a new color(s). Hp mods would be almost a waist. Honda likes to bump hp by 8 or 14 but never 30+. small hp gains would only point out the loss of Hp over the years. we all know why there was a Hp loss but your average Joe would no see it that way. My money is on a Mugen S2000. n/a

It's worth remembering that any driveline mods (engine, trans, diff gears) would require EPA recertification. Probably not likely. Suspension bits, brakes, etc. are much more likely for a limited production version of an already limited production model. My guess is the EPA requirement is why so many "club" versions retain the original drivetrain. I hope I'm wrong.

I think it would be great if it came with red badging, black side view mirrors and white wheels.

That speedtv article sounds very nice. Taking 200 pounds off the car alone is awesome. Once its been out for a bit, I'll have to trade my stock seats for non-leather ones (if they do indeed put in better seats. . .sorry, I don't like leather, simply doesnt hold you in the seat).

And to red badging
