They are both different routes to the same thing... more zing
The effect of each is totally different. Power delivery changes etc.
Different kind of zing.

What does it do to the top speed?
I have never taken it flat out but I would expect no more than ~ 135mph.

Dont quote me on this...
The gears "get" you there quicker, you get to vtec 17% quicker with 4.57r. Plus you sit highier in every gear, thus acceleration is increased to x mph.
AS a result the top MPH is "about" 150MPH on mine but acceleration is increased. But 0-100, providing you launched perfectly and no other factor it would be "roundabout" .5 seconds quicker - which is quite a difference.
I feel it has more lower down grunt and you dont need to downshift when overtaking, it feels faster and "is" according to my gtech.
If you really want to know more information PM me and id be happy to help about all aspects. Also the quality of the installation is essential!
here is a video, that demonstrates a S2000 with 4.57 (and a few mods) and a stock S2000
P.S I suspect this chap is a good driver too
