eManage is just a fuel system piggyback ecu. It will work on your stock injectors and throtle body. It is better to be safe and upgrade them but yes the eManage will work fine.

would it do any good if i just add it to a stock s2K??

VTEC-Power

no, unless you have upgraded fuel injectors

Yes. In stock form, the s2000 runs very rich. My a/f on a recent trip to the dyno had readings in the mid 11s to low 12s after the cat. You can use the eManage or VAFC to lean out the a/f ratio in turn getting more area under the curve = more power. Don't expect life changing results, but every little bit helps.

yea if you run to rich you will never pass smog if you care

I have experiences with the E-manage. Stay as far away from that piece of shit as possible. Between the 2 hours of hacking up my factory ECU harness, poorly written and translated instruction manuals missing vital hookup information, daily CELs for no reason, sub-par tuning abilities because OBD2 learns around it, and rediculous extra shit you need to buy to get any usefulness out of it, I sold it. At least I got back everything that I paid for the whole system and now I have gone with a chipped P72 instead.

Piggybacks suck. Period. If you have your heart set on leaning out the fuel mixture a bit, I recommend the VAFC instead.
