Is there any difference between S1 and S2 for the RB intake?
The installation instructions on their website for the ram air duct seem to be the same for both S1 and S2,
except for cutting some foam on the bumper for S2 models.

The S2 and S1 intakes are the same. The ram air is also the same, but there is a mounting bracket that mounts differently on the S2 and S1. Either could buy the bracket from RB or customize the S2 bracket to fit on the S1.

Okay thanks, PM'ed you about the ram air duct and intake. Interested in just the duct or possibly the whole kit.

Can you post close up pics of the lower bushings on the coil overs?

Yes no prob I will post later today. These are the newer model ones. Charles from powertrix sent them out about a year back. They are supposedly stronger and not prone to rip.

Supposedly but I talked to a guy in a FB group who got the replacements two years ago and they fell apart the same way. He just ditched the coilovers all together because he was annoyed with the issue, that is why I am concerned about it.

Hmmm interesting. Uploaded the pics. No problems with the bushings been running them for a while and they hold up strong. Many people around here are running them and most people enjoy them much more then the alternatives for the price. Plus the swift springs are really awesome.
