The power? That was tough to tell since I did a lot at one time. I did the drop in filter, header, 5way suspension, progress rear sway bar, front strut bar. I noticed a HUGE differance after that. Again in my 1/4 thread. Stock with the Mugen NRs I ran a 18.8@72mph (avg time after a few runs) By the end of the night I managed to run 17.0@79.8. Almost a 2 sec increase and 8mph. 8 mph doesn't seem like a huge number but those who drag race know that is a huge increase for just a few minor bolt ons.
My S2000 sounded the best with the Mugen exhaust, but I swapped the A&J Racing T1R70 for total track power
But that's a excellent increase! You could gain more by switching to a forged light weight wheel. The NR's are nice looking Mugen wheels but are a heavy cast (same as stock approx, or slightly less). They will not hurt but you could gain more if total performance is your goal. I personally plan on getting the NR wheels come spring because I'm keeping with the Mugen theme for my Fit
