I'm happy to say that the car that PMUM dared to build is done and sitting in my garage. Those in the know have heard of this car...others are about to.
The short of it...397 rwhp, 13.2lbs. of boost and a LOT of little goodies to keep it all together.
Here's one of the dyno charts (the only one i remembered to get). This car drives like a stock car until you keep your foot planted on the LOUD pedal and then it...well...GOES! Kudo's to the guys at AUTOWAVE in Huntington Beach for finishing Paul's car with such dedication and professionalism...thanks guys. This in one niiiiiiiiice car.

Yep. The Penske's are still on there, the big assed Brembos, and a lotta rubber (265/235). I'll post some pics as soon as I get some time, but the car runs flawlessly. I'll probably get it to the track next month, I'll post my times....just subtract 4 seconds a lap for PMUM times...
JK.

I just read the update on Doug's site. 
from NSXFiles - Live OTC Updates: Commentary about Day 5 at Buttonwillow
April 28, 2004.
Autowave finished building the PMUM S2000. Before Paul passed on, he told Autowave that he wanted his S2000 motor to be rebuilt to handle boost from a Comptech supercharger, and it has to be able to run 50 laps in a track day at the redline, with no problems, no overheating, and it must be able to drive home on its own power. Brett decided to buy the PMUM S2000, and told Autowave to build it just like Paul wanted to....

395 RWHP? Ah......kinda hard to believe. Brett said that he thinks it is faster than the Viper he used to own. We line up the F355 against the S2000, and from a rolling start....the PMUM S2000 destroys it. We do it again on the freeway, doing a 40 mph to 80 mph blast on a deserted part of the freeway. The F355 eats dirt again. Hummmm.....maybe I'll to rethink a new street car strategy.

Almost exactly one year after the green light was given to build the PMUM S2000, it is now sitting in the garage of its new owner. Imagine 395 RWHP, Penske triple adjustables tuned by EMI Racing Suspensions, big ass Brembo brakes on all four corners, with 18 inch wheels on all four corners. The spirit of PMUM lives on!
