This is another reason I really didn't like moding my s2000. An AEM intake was about 300 bucks, but because of the vtec system, it wasn't very good at adding power. A good intake for an s2k ran from a grand up wards (some went up to 3k...for a cold air intake!). The best exhaust for it cost about 2500, even if it didn't add any power it weight 12 pounds versus the 45+ of the stock.

Adding an exhaust is a cheap way to get power...if you get power....for cheap

Hahaha... what makes you think that's nitrous? I never specifically said it's nitrous, I just alluded to that. This is actually a collector bottle connected to a sphincter vacuum system in the driver's seat. So, yes, it is most definitely flammable gas. I just don't want any released in my car, I HATE that. To be honest though, I only got the single seat system. I bowed out of the dual seat system as my girl rarely passes gas and better not do it in my Boxster!

Here's a link to their website explaining the system.

Also you obviously never saw the movie Fast and Furious. Dude, that Eclipse SO blew up when the nawz bottles ruptured!!!
