Default S2000 (2004) and Kawasaki ZX14 (2007)

Hi Guys,

New to s2000s. Not so new to light small fast vehicles.

Current bike:
2007 Kawasaki Ninja zx14

Previous bikes:
Honda Rebel 250 (mid-80s bike can't remember the year)
2007 Ninja 650r
2001 Kawasaki ninja zx12r
2008 Kawasaki Ninja 650r

Might need to put a SC in my S to make it feel more like my zx14 hehe

I know what you mean. I have a low boost sc 2002 and I "need" more power. That being said, it sure is fun in the corners and it stops so hard it's almost painful.

My current bike is an 08 Busa,which everyone knows are a little faster than zx14s (unnecessary taunt and bait), lol. I put a haidryer on mine and built the crap out of it too. Speed and acceleration are quite addictive. I know I'll end up making out my S2000 too. I'm already collecting the needed parts for a 500+ HP build.

Unfortunately I have to give credit where it is do and say the 08 Busa was "ever so slightly" faster then the zx14.
Now if you sat here and tried to tell me a zx14r (1441cc) was slower we might have to disagree
If I recall correctly the 08 was last major engine update for the Busa so we are still waiting for Suzuki's answer for the zx14r.

I'm curious about your low boost SC for your S. Hit me with the details? I've been reading all about them.
Low boost SC is more than likey what I'm looking for as in the near future I plan on making it my DD.
Just waiting for the 03 Durango (222k miles - original engine and tranny) to finally take the long sleep.

I've been reading s2ki pretty thoroughly and going to take the majority's advice and keep it stock for now until I really have a feel for the car.
I almost think it's a crime to change anything as the S is bone stock but I feel the need...the need for speed.
