Go to some track days, get good at it, and enjoy smoking less experienced Z06/911/M3/SRT4 drivers! The track is where the S2K really shines.

But to answer your question, turbo shouldn't blow your engine if you watch the air/fuel ratio.

Naturally aspirated options include weight reduction (remove spare tire, winshield washer fluid, passenger seat, get lighter exhaust and wheels, remove A/C, etc) and you could get 20 hp if you're lucky with intake header and exhaust. If you want to go all out, you can get individual throttle bodies which I think can net you at least 30 hp. I'm not sure but I do know the Naturally Aspirated forum has lots of answers.

LOL. If you want to race other little boys on the street like an ass-hat, you bought the wrong car.

LOL you scared to turbo your car because you might blow the engine.LOL!

Are engine are well engineer man, you can turbocharge your car man many guys on here have their car over 400 and have no problem, its safe man.

If you that scared get a supercharger, SOS or Kraftwerks, its enough to fill your appetite.

Or just get some bolt-ons and EMU or EMS and tune it get a good amount of added whp. do some research.

I beat my friend stage 2 SRT-4 everytime from a dig and roll.

I have full bolts on and EMS tuned.

I already have the bolt ons and was contemplating if i should get a EMS or 4.77 gears and i decided to go with EMS because later down the road i am getting my car supercharge or turbocharge.

My next upgrade will be SOS stage 2 kit or the new MASE turbo kit.

You can get 4.77 gears its a good upgrade for the money. check on youtube from comparison 4.77 gears vs stock s2000

haha you sound like a RICER! jk buddy. you shouldn't be scared of turbos though, our engine is forged from factory and could handle high amounts of boost with a good tune. as you may know, that will cost you some money. what i recommend is the 4.77 gears as other users have stated, or a driver mod, you shouldn't get beat by a neon w/turbo.

golden poon intake, hasselhoff 50 trim turbo charger and a flux cap exhaust. you might top 450 fish power but its gonna be tight. if you have the money get yourself the upgraded hoff-charger and get the evil version

Don't forget the Chuck Norrisator exhaust headers that offer a roundhouse air attack, but only if you're running a test-pipe, otherwise you won't see any HP gains.
