Default herecomesboost build thread (part 2)

Well, this thread is slightly premature (as I don't currently own an S2000). I've been absent from the forums for a few months (PM me if curious). I sold my 05 Elise not too long ago; it was fun, but I was nervous driving/parking it in NoVa. Moreover, I didn't have the heart to mod it. Fast forward to today. I'm currently searching for another S2000. I plan on going all out with this build (8.8/v160). This build will likely move at a glacial pace compared to my last build (my wife and I are in the market for a vacation home/second home, so funds will be diverted to the 'second house fund' first). I deleted my old build thread (had an issue with photobucket, so my build thread was without pics; I still have the full album if anyone is interested in pics). Regardless, I look forward to starting my build thread. It's great to be back on S2ki!

2005 S2000(previous build)








2005 Elise(the reason I sold my old S)




Updates to the garage (I plan on going with the pdf service manual this time. The 32" tv has a telescoping mount )



Now I just need to find a way to politely boot my wife's SUV from the garage so that I can install a lift

I knew you be back! So why were you scared to park it? They get stolen?

Ha! Yeah, it didn't take long. I was more concerned with door dings/general damage (with the Elise).

I sold my car this past fall to 'all4spl' (derric). What type of dyno was used to reach the new numbers?
