Welcome, and glad you chose the s2k! I have two friends with high power boosted s2k's and I'd say it all depends on how much your willing to put into the build. Personally I want something more reliable so when I get my 2nd s2k I will probably go withe the basic 8psi low boost build. If you check out different retailers you will see parts that make higher numbers possibly, example injectors, pistons, rods, and whatnot. Just remember that the more parts you add the less reliability you will have. From my personal experience in the modifying scene (500whp srt4, 600ish b5 s4) more power doesn't bring happiness. Being able to drive a car without worries is the best feeling even if it isn't the fastest. My ap2 s2k I owned for 4 years was the best vehicle and it only had cai, exhaust. I still put down 13.7 1/4 on crap tires and enjoyed never even worrying about repairs or things breaking. If your s2k is a DD I would recommend keeping a mild build, but if its for fun contact a shop and tell them what you want and they will point you in the direction you need to go. Either way I wish you luck and hope you continue to enjoy your car.
