Default itb's for first mod

well if you read my other topic, i am about to come into a nice little chunk of change to blow on this s. i was thinking as my first mod doing like itb's or something. i think i wanna keep the s n/a. but i definately wanna start putting the money in this car to boost the hp as well as sound. i am not exactly sure what i wanna do first. i think itb's is definately something i wanna go with, especially horsepower gain wise. what are some of your probably more knowledgeable opinions?

ITBs are a lot of $$$ for the result. Do you have the basic I/H/E test pipe? If you want to stay NA, get those, a VAFC, then go up from there.. Either ITBs if you wish, or even Toda Spec C cams, some higher compression pistons, etc.. .
What mods do you have already? Also maybe a 4.57 final gear..

It'd be better if you got all of the breathing mods first, then move onto the ITBs. Getting ITBs first wouldn't be such a good idea as the engine gets choked up later down the exhaust.

However, 4.57/4.77 will give you a nice kick. "Best bang for the buck" as stated by most.

Where have you seen any testamonials that claim ITBs gain anything on an S2000 to justify the cost? Only a handful are around and some of these don't run so good. You got that much money to "blow"?

"Panties" wouldn't know ITBs or "gears" if they sat on them. Besides, girlies won't be too impressed when the damn car won't even idle.
