would i be better off N/A
which is the best way to get the best out of an F22? if i bore the pistons, port n polish, do all the things those pros do to the engines. would it be better performance wise? everyone is supercharging or turboing. what about N/A?
You dont really give enough info on your goals for the car. How much horsepower you are looking for? Will you be Road racing/ dragging/ daily driving?
Supercharging/ Turbos are the best bang for the buck and you will have less down time going this route. + if you are trying to get a lot of HP this will get you higher #'s than NA will.
IMO NA cars are more fun to drive, but you will reach a point where you just cant get any more horspower and you will spend big $$$$ on your way to that point.
I would suggest you research different set ups Allmotor, Turbo, and supercharged then find a shop that has done a similair set ups or even specializes building the type of motor you are looking for. Good Luck!

neveronlines2k hit just about every point.
it really all depends on your goals. i can't figure out why but i've always had this craving for an all motor car. in my previous car i went this route, but to get where i wanted it it took more than just motor mods. i threw some smaller wheels on it with lighther rubber, gutted my interior and sounddeadening (left the dash, front seats, front door panels, and some carpet on the front) after a lot of patience and money it made for a very quick setup, but not very comfortable. it was a 2001 neon r/t and with a cold air, throttle body, intake manifold, underdrive pulleys, long tube race header, full exhaust with one muffler, custom ecu burn, stiffer motor/tranny mounts, and the above weight reduction in addittion to removing the a/c and power steering it made for a car that would hit ~155mph and in a 1/4 mile would take 2-5 car lengths on 350z's, g35 coupe's and the new 6-speed tl's.
in the s. .i'll probably boost tho, there aren't much gains to be had going na unless you spend ALOT of money, and for less money you could boost and get more power.

is there any chance of building a 10 sec. S with a supercharer? the fastest s2k's in the world are turboed.

If you really want to build a FULL drag car you probably should have bought a different car. I'm not saying the S cant be a drag car, but you could have built a car that would get you lower time slips for less money than purchasing the S and doing a full build to it.
I would go to the Racing or Forced induction sections of the site and see what those folks are doing to squeez the most HP and TQ out of the motor.
From what your looking for I would say Turbo and Nitrous are in your future. You may want to start playing the lottery because you are going to spend a ton of money building a motor that can handle it with out blowing up every 2500 miles.
You can start preparing the car by gutting everything that is not required from your car AC, Power Steering, Cruise Control, carbon parts to lighten the car up doors, trunk, fenders, Hardtop (remove soft top) and hood get some lexan windows and then get ready to build that motor.
