I will give u the bottomline on intakes for this car, but first let me say i am speaking from direct racing experience. First, none of the intakes available will improve the car any more than doing a drop in. Reason, the stock design is very efficient and utilizes a semi "ram air" snorkel system. This is the key to proper intake design for a low displacement circuit car. The intake utilizes high air flow at speed with this snorkel. Two ways to improve: 1. Make a direct "ram air" system with slotted hood or bumper 2.Make a revised air box with a larger integrated snorkel. Neither of which exist YET. So for now just use a higher flowing filter for best results. If u want to look at examples of what i am refering to, check out the J'sRacing and Spoon intakes for the S2000 (also the original Mugen).
