If you're going to get married in the next couple years, then NOTHING is for sure.

I definately wouldnt cut that intake. Thats the baller "whale penis" intake that the S2Ki guys are in love with. You could flip it for a good chunk of change and buy another intake with a lot left over if you really wanted to go that route.

I'm in the opposite end of the spectrum. I have an 08 supercharged and half CF S2000 that I love, but we're trying to decide on which IS model we want as a more comfortable DD. I love the IS-F, she loves the IS-C.

just joined this site looking for a good deal on a new is 250. saw this thread and as a former s2k owner, ya not the fastest car but the most fun car i have ever driven. good choice.

i'd get a mugen intake or a replica mugen intake as they both work the same and cut a hole in the front bumper as the air guide is above the radiator on that particular intake plus the air moves in a straighter line into the filter.
