That is one HOT engine bay!!!
How did you shield the heat of the turbo?
Which bonnet are you using?

there is a heat shield next to the brake masterclinder and ABS, it is also covered in some sort of heat material which is also stuck on to the bonnet but only to where the turbo sits

Very nice
How does she feel on the road?
How long did your tuner take to set this up?

So are you coming to the cruise in sept organised by Jackhammer?
We would all love to droooool over your car.

She drives just like any other S2000, only that once you start to boost she comes alive like you wouldn't believe, I have only driven it with 12psi, and it was wild, I was meant to have got it back on monday, but the diff let go on Sunday.

It will be back on the road by the weekend with 17psi and making 380hp soon it will be at 20psi and it should make over 400hp

The engine was completly stipped down and built with steel conrods and 8.9:1 pistons.

it also has a motec which runs everthing (very pricy)

When and where is the cruise i'll see if i can make it.

Are you setting this up for the drag strip or as a weekend car? If the former what are you going to be doing to get all that power to the ground? At what revs does boost spool up?

How long have you been working on this project?

That's the best looking turbo setup that I have ever seen! And you've got one of my carbon panels.. hah hah Very very nice setup! What kind of turbo is that?
