Mmm ... i don't want to sound skeptical but based on those mods I'm really not sure you're going to see a whole lot if any gains for top hp. You might get some mid-range improvements.

Also, you mentioned tuning? I don't see anything listed in your mods that would allow for any tuning? As mentioned earlier, a VAFC might allow you to squeeze some gains out of your setup.

Also re: the exhaust. Somebody suggested a T1R70. I have the T1R63 and am very happy w/ it. For your setup i don't think you're going to get any more from the 70 than you would from the 63, and the 63 is several hundred dollars less. You'd be better off using the difference to pick up a VAFC maybe.
good points...

but people are seeing gains if 25+ rwhp with bolt on's and a tune...


I agree with the 63mm vrs 70mm, but the 70mm does yield slightly better gains. But will I sell my 63mm for a 70? probably not.....


and for the OP, do you have a vafc or a some type of tuning device?

J's header and t1r 70mm is probably the best production set up you could for a N/A s2000
