Honda S2000 HKS ‘twisted’ 4-2-1 exhaust manifold – coming soon!

The second of HKS’s new for Honda S2000 tuning goodies that were on display at the recent 2012 Tokyo Auto Salon – a new design of 4-2-1 tubular stainless steel high performance exhaust manifold that’s designed to boost low and mid-range torque without compromising the F20C’s legendary top end power.

As with the factory exhaust manifold, the new HKS Honda S2000 exhaust manifold is a 4-2-1 design, but the key difference is that the secondary pipes on the new HKS manifold are twisted to enable them to be longer, which boosts low and mid-range torque.

HKS also reports that the new Honda S2000 ‘twisted’ exhaust manifold also reduces detonation, enabling users to run a wider spread of ignition advance to boost power even further. Combine this with a top quality stainless steel construction that’s been optimised to maximise flow and reduce back pressure, the new HKS ‘Twisted’ manifold is set to be  a must have for Honda S2000 owners!

Pre-orders for the HKS Honda S2000 ‘Twisted’ exhaust manifold are being taken now, so to express your interest please email Torque Developments using sales@tdi-plc.com

New TODA Racing Honda S2000 heavy duty cam chain

    Until now Honda tuning enthusiasts have had to rely on the standard OEM Honda camshaft timing chain for use on the high revving F20C / F22C motor found in the S2000 sports car. In standard form the Honda camshaft timing chain is adequate for the job, but during consistent high speed running, or in engines with high lift cams that place additional stress on the valvetrain, the original cam chain can stretch, leading to compromises with valve timing and questionable durability. With this in mind, TODA Racing is pleased to launch a Heavy Duty Timing Chain. Designed for both the F20C and F22C variants of the AP1 / AP2 Honda S2000, the Heavy Duty Timing Chain boasts the following technical advantages:-  

  • Advanced punch manufacturing techniques result in improved accuracy, smoother surface finish and fewer edge burrs, leading to reduced internal friction and smoother, quieter chain operation
  • Larger area side plates, revised hole designs and bigger pin diameter to prevent fatigue and increase longevity
  • Detail improvements result in reducing the stretching of the chain under constant high velocity engine revolutions by as much as 35% 
  • The TODA Heavy Duty Timing Chain can be easily distinguished from the standard Honda product by the gold colour timing markings and the embossed TODA name on the side plates.

Developed, tested and proven to the high quality levels expected from TODA Racing’s technicians, the new Honda S2000 Heavy Duty Timing Chain is available now exclusively from TODA Europe, a division of Torque Developments International Plc, priced at £199.75 including VAT @ 17.5%. You can buy this product now by clicking on the following link: http://www.toda-europe.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22_244_245&products_id=1419&osCsid=b8076f998fcfdd8b04e73b835d92e716

TODA Racing F20C / F22C Heavy Duty Timing Chain Tensioner

To optimise durability, further reduce friction and improve camshaft timing accuracy TODA Europe recommends that the S2000 Heavy Duty Timing Chain should be used in conjunction with the accompanying Heavy Duty Timing Chain Tensioner. Designed specifically to overcome the standard oil pressure driven Honda automatic tensioner’s weakness of allowing the cam timing to slip under sudden engine braking, the TODA Heavy Duty Chain Tensioner is compatible with both the F20C and F22C S2000 engines and is designed to work with high compression engines with up to 1mm skimmed from the cylinder head.

The TODA Heady Duty Timing Chain Tensioner is on sale now, priced at £240.87 including VAT @ 17.5%. Customers can purchase this product now by following this link: http://www.toda-europe.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22_244_245&products_id=1417&osCsid=b8076f998fcfdd8b04e73b835d92e716
