Just joined and soaking up all the good info. Hope to give some back some day. Until I update my signature, I'll give you the basics. 2005 blk/blk. Just bought it two weeks ago.

What I've already learned.

1. Clutch delay valve is coming out. ( I noticed delay on very first power shift
and thought ..OH CRAP why'd it slip?)
2. Strut bar isn't really necessary, but hey, it looks cool.
3. Cold air intake is a good cheap mod. (which leads me to my first question.
Do I need to make an adjustment to my system regarding the air fuel
mixture, or am I just over thinking it?
4. Bill knows his picks.(see clutch delay valve removal - seriously, great info.)
5. GO sounds like a S2000 Junkie (in a good way)
6. I now spend twice the amount of time on the computer. (the more info,
the better.)
7. Either I don't know how to run searches very well, or there's just not
much info available on interior mods. (i.e. adding kick panel lights, under
dash lighting,etc.) Maybe I can contribute there.
8. I promise to search threads before asking "the same ol' question/s."
9. The odds of my avatar showing up on this first post are 10,000:1

Welcome to the site. As for needing to adjust your A/F ratio with a CAI, I don't believe so. I haven't heard fo too many people getting that into tuning with just a CAI.

If Go's not a junkie, none of us are. Welcome, Clark!
