Factory manifolds with factory heat shields, Turbo manifold is jet hot coated and wrapped, turbine housing is coated and wrapped with a blanket also.

I'd say the Trackspec vents made the biggest difference though. Do you guys have hood vents?
LOL, I am the one that talked Trackspec into making them. We did the whole group buy thing and tripled the number we needed.

I found it to be worth about 10*. I think the Stillen front bumper does a good job too.

Oh haha, It was so long ago I forgot. Thanks for the push!

I'm actually thinking the openings for the Stillen bumper are too large. I was planning on making the inlet smaller/making the air dam taller and creating partial block off plates for the side inlets ducting it to the intercooler/radiator kinda similar to what Pro Awesome did to their Evo in here.

It is a constant balance of airflow, downforce and cooling. I have been considering some of the same things.

She did well for some DIY tuning and no seat time since last years GTA!

Down somewhere in the neighborhood of 75-100 WHP cause I took a bunch of timing out for the sake of engine safety and still managed to set a new PB!

Wound up getting 4th in Street Class behind Amir & his NSX, A local J32 swapped S2000 and the brand new M4.

Time for a new transmission now though due to a nasty 5th gear grind.
