And see if you can find a Digrappa X-Brace. The Spoon one doesn't do anything.

The rest is good. I wouldn't do the spoiler but if that's what you want then go for it. And make sure you keep your cat if you go single.

Comptech intake has a hole in it for the hood prop and that allows it to suck in hot air. Go with a mugen replica if you want sound and carbon. If you want performance, just stay with the stock airbox. No intake offers enough gains to justify the $$.

The spoon X-Brace, like the rest of their bars, are hollow. They flex way too much to do anything.

And a personal opinion. You fail for wanting to keep heavy stock wheels. Lightweight wheels are the best all around mod for the S2k IMO. You get improved handling, braking,acceleration, and a better looking stance. The stock offsets on all hondas SUCK! Just take your wasted intake and corner balancing money and get a nice set of wheels.

I'm not positive on this one, but I think corner balancing a 50/50 weight distributed car is pointless. I'm pretty sure it would be a waste of money for a street car.
