Cold Air Intake

I don't see it that way. Although Honda did a great job tuning this motor, a gain with a bolt on mod shows that there was in-fact room for improvement. If there were no room, then bolt-ons would cause a loss of power.
Honda tuned as best they could to gain the most power out of the motor and still remain within emission standards, keep reliability and overall costs down.
I see where you are coming from and no, there aren't any 30+HP intakes or headers, but 5+HP here and 5+ there do add up. It just takes more time, money and patience.

i gots the AEM CAI, it sounds and looks sweet. as far as performance, i dont know crap about dynos and whatnot, but i have noticed a definate advantage over stock s2k'S with just this bolt-on while racing between stoplights!. I know it works, just not sure how much...

Well, I had the PRM and didn't like it. Its the best sounding intake, IMO, but its restrictive. I ended up changing intakes b/c it was robbing me of power... making the car run really rich.

There's often posts discussing with CAI is best, and I've read most of them b/c I'm in the market for one but haven't decided which to get. Anyone have any dyno results from the different ones? I know AEM has dyno results posted on aempower.com, but I'm really interested in seeing PRM results b/c I've read that it robs power, which is something I'd not be excited about.

Here's the site for aem dyno, looks impressive, especially the spike at lower rpms'
