I can certainly respect your goals and admire your desire to stay N/A. All I am saying is that it gets VERY expensive to make good power past a certain point. Based on the mod list you stated, you still have a fair amount of mods to do which will cost you a pretty penny. I have no doubt that you will OWN most CTSC guys, but keeping it real a CTSC isn't all that. Like I mentioned before, you don't make a respectable amount of power until redline. Sure, the car may be more "streetable" but a turbo S2000 will eat it alive.
Your 1320 times are VERY impressive. Without hesitation you are a GREAT driver and your S is making very good power.

medicalstudent style. I had over 200 pounds shaved and with the gears, I can tell you that my car was really hauling ass. I gave so many 350z drivers the "o" face...

You will need to modify both of your exhausts before they will fit on an MY06/07.
my HKS needs it, my 70mm might not, but i wont know until i go to bolt it on.

A fully gutted S with all aforementioned mods would give a low boost turbo a run for it's money. I'm talking if you can get the car in the 2300 range.

I believe Safety 21 roll bar is the same thing as the Cusco roll bar and if that is the case it is definitely not safe.
oh, when then some kinda roll cage.
