IMO Carbon Fiber hoods are stupid so i'd say the exhaust. But i'd go for the dual to single conversion, though the titanium tips are cool.

i thought you said in another thread about the s2000 that just a catback exhaust does not do much for performance.

I say the hood, but it'd be even cooler if you painted most or all of it.

correct. a more free flowing exhaust will harm the performance on a stock car. mine isn't stock. i have better breathing due to the intake i have on my car. coupled with a vafc, this exhaust should be able to get me another 4hp or so.

however, i could care less about that. my main reason for getting this is looks and sound.

i refuse to get a single exhaust. number 1, a single doesn't provide any more performance increase than a dual, since the S2k actually does have a functional and designed working dual exhaust.

second, if you get a single exhaust, the back doesn't look right to me since the body molding/bumper and rear valance have "holes" essentially for 2 exhaust ports. with a single exhaust, the other side just sits there empty and looks kinda dumb IMO

is there a rear bumper u can get with only one cut-out? I agree that if there is a cutout then u can't leave one empty but if u had a rear bumper with only one cutout that would be hotness!
Either way id say get the exhaust over the CF hood.

You can get something that covers up that extra hole if you get a single exhaust. I can't remember where I saw it though.

jackson racing doesn't make an SC for the S2000. Only comptech and Vortech do.

Even then, I'd go with a custom turbo kit. not an SC (since you're spending about $7,000 either way)
