I don't like the open cone types, which leaves to my knowledge the ARC box, a Mugen, J's or Gruppe M.
ARC is meant to suck in hot air.
Mugen and J's require bonnet/bumper hacking.
Gruppe M I am not sure if it needs the above, but it's £1000 and rare as hens teeth.

Love the tiny bit of slip on a couple of faster corners too.

I don't know how well they're rated but there is a Comptech intake up for sale on eBay.

Was that a cheeky little slide around 1:15?
Lovely vid & reminds me just how good a 4cyl can sound. What are you recording the sound with?

Going to keep the OEM airbox for now, but thanks.
Yeah, back end does that now and again especially with the lower temperatures.

Buy another OEM airbox cheap and Hondata mod it and put in a drop in filter. Engine bay stays neat and OEM and if you don't like it, you can swap your non modded airbox back in.
I was in an AP1 around Mondello 2 months ago and they're lush. Not sure if it was just the one I was in but it had a lot more engine noise in the cabin than I'd expected! Friend of mine had one with a buddyclub catback system on it and my god the sound!

It's an Audio Technica ATR-3350. I've got the skeleton casing on my GoPro 3, the mic needs a USB to 3.5mm convertor as well.
They do have a lot of cabin noise as standard. The engine is way back in the bay and the cabin is tiny so the noise is reverberated around more than normal cars.

Due to the weather, and the fact I'm a pussy, I haven't had chance to drive the car much. Which has a knock on effect on getting data back to Mase in order to get the map adjusted. The exhaust has been on a fair while, and I'd managed to get some logs over to Mase and he's sent a new map. He said it was running quite rich so he's leaned it out - my arse dyno confirms that there is an improvement. It's less jumpy lower down and VTEK comes in a bit lower which gives it much more usable power. More logs have been sent over, so I'm hoping to get something new to try soon, then maybe look at doing a dyno run of the stock map compared to the new one.
In other news, I'm booked into get a new roof fitted in March.

Don't know if you've ever watched any MCM but the recent s2000 episodes have been quite interesting...
Here's the start of the propper mods (there's a purchase, some OEM drag strip & CAI episodes previous to this):

New Spoon (+5bhp) Radiator stays fitted as the old ones were rusted to buggery.
Before:
After:
Also checked the oil, not a single drop used. In fact, it's not used a single drop since I bought it. :lol:
TGM are currently painting another rocker cover which I should have fitted in a few weeks.

Rocker cover painted, TGM suggested not to use crinkle as it'll just flake again so went with red. It's a bit shinier than expected! But it's better than what was on there and I've never been one for having a tarted up engine bay.
Going to getting on to Hendy to order some replacement bolts, nuts & plastic thingies that are around the engine bay to get rid of the little bits of rust and where things are starting to look dated.
While the cover was off, cams and stuff:
Also had this delivered:
Part of a new ICE setup, as I'm fed up with the pony noise the standard speakers produce, it's booked in tomorrow so expect a quick run down after that.
