s2000 turbo
-
just my opion, but i think turbocharging an s2000 isn't a good idea... unless the intent is to use it as a drag car. if i were to own an s2000, i'd probably consider a sc or just good i/h/e and raise the compression to 12:1. on another hand... it's all about the driving habits. if there won't be excessive handling needed, then the turbo would be my choice

BOOST IS FUCKING BOOST.
Don't matter if it's red, black, blue, or green. Vortech, Garret, Paxton, whatever, positive manifold pressure, is positive manifold pressure.And adding a turbo kit and gaining 100+ whp, compared to pulling the motor, putting in new pistons, intake, header, and exhaust, for 12+ whp isn't really worth it.

I was going to say 9 lbs from a sc should be the same as 9 lbs from a turbo.
(correct me if i am wrong) -
Well, sortof. The volume of air being moved @ 9 psi will vary the amount of hp being generated. For instance an s2k with a t25 @ 25 psi will make less power than an s2k with a t3/t67 @ 5 psi.

If flow numbers are similar then psi for psi should be close.

so anyways, very cool mods, bet it sounds badass..... vtec + turbo = wood

i'm referring to the nature of the car; the s2000 was built to be a superior-handling, quick car.
in my opinion, any turbo lag will change that. if one were to use a sc, the lag would be less noticeable (keep in mind, i have limited sc knowledge). this is why i feel that n/a is the way to go with the s2000 if it is going to be turning a lot (as i mentioned in the previous post).
also, my statements are completely independent of my opinions on how to make a car faster in a straight-line. does that make more sense now?
