Ok, so if anyone checks the site here, quick update.

I started back to school in August for a Masters in Healthcare Admin. Money has been a little tight, but here is what I got going.

Current Mods:
16" Black rota slipstream wheels with Falken Azenis tires all around, 215 up front, 225 out back. Car is lowered about an inch on Espelir ASD springs. Car also has some Hawk HPS pads up front.

Since it is almost winter, the hardtop will be going on soon. Its the OEM one in black. With the HT and wheels, car looks like the batmobile.

I just ordered a Greddy Emanage Ultimate Piggyback tuning system. I am also in the process of ordering a Private Label Manufacturing (that's the brand name) header. Once the header comes in, I will install it, and then most likely driving to Atlanta one weekend in December to have the car tuned by a guy named Giles, the best S2000 tuner on the east coast (arguably in the country).

Hope to get peak numbers somewhere around 220 at the wheels, but more importantly, should be able to lower VTEC to 4500 (from 6000) and see gains of 20+ whp in the midrange (maybe 5000-7000rpms).

After that, I have had a nice set of Diamond Audio component speakers and Amp sitting in my spare bedroom for like 4 months now, waiting to install them with the headunit I already put it.

After that I am done with the S for a long while, and will then be focus on finding a house once my girlfriend graduates and gets a job in May.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Crusher when I get it washed up and the HT goes on for the winter I'll snap a few off. We have a D80 at work I can play with.

Brad, do you have it flipped? The higher the number, the steeper the gears, so 4.44 would get you better MPG for DD, and 4.57 would be more agressive.

Oh yeah I was thinking you said 4.57 and 4.77 which is the most common for the s2k. My bad. I don't hear many people that get the 4.44.
