I've done exhaust CAI and other mods but the best value for money and the most expensive by far was coilovers. Forget the header and the exhaust and get a set of decent coilovers instead.
The rest is wasted money.
The Jewel in the S2K crown is the handling.

I've heard the Mugen, - definitely deeper and somewhat louder than stock
have similar set up on mine, sounds v good but not mad. louder deeper exhaust a little bit of burble on overrun and the intake growls more.
Add them one by one to appreciate each ones effect.
good choice

Stock ecu runs massively rich. 13 AF is optimum and even with a maifold, decat, catback and CAI at WOT mine is running 12AF below 6000 and as rich as 11.6 upto the limiter!
Gains are minimal with the mods as its well designed and setup as is. Best mod for me would be a Hondata Kpro as you will bag loads more bhp just by leaning it out to optimum AF and therefore also better mpg as it won't be burning so much fuel.
Win win....but

Not on WOT it isn't.
At part throttle AFR should be around 14, wide open it should be around 11.8.

For a NA setup WOT target lambda is 13.
For a boosted setup your after 12.
Anything richer than 12.5 on an NA setup and your just wasting fuel.
You are correct for the setup you have however.

Will a 'Fluke Capacitor' running on fizzy drinks and banana skins increase performance?
