s2000 turbo

[SmitEvo]

Did you make that manifold too?

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

Joey, who's the bald guy installing that front mount :-p.

Dude, once again...

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)

[PSiedTSi]

you are correct sir

[integra_gsr98]

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.

[92TSIpos]

yeah i suppose if you want to get into detail,but if you match volume of the turbo and sc it should be about the same?

[integra_gsr98]

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

[Sweet-WRX-Lovin]

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

By the way im headed to aem for the advanced training feb 2nd.

Who is we? Is this a shop or something I don't know about?

[integra_gsr98]

Shop is Excessive Autosports in Sioux Falls. We still haven't figured out who the bald guy is yet though.

i dont think of light car when i think of a convertable.

[vss2k]

looks good, is that a custom kit?

My convertible is 2150 lbs. I think thats pretty light. Now I just need another 200hp.

My convertible is 2150 lbs fully dressed. I think thats pretty light. Now I just need another 200hp.
