I think when the fall comes around, (I will not daily the S anymore), I will be doing Race gas and racegas only. I dont want more power, I just want to make it easier.
Although in "meths defense" and not to start a debate you did go kind of buck wild with the stock CR......
don't feel bad, my time is limited as well
What did the knock voltage go up to?

Damn man, sorry to hear this.
As for the little bit of smoke coming out of the filter on your catch can at idle, thats pretty much normal I believe. When I pop the hood after driving it for a while, I can see some faint smoke swirls at times with it idling.
As far as meth....I say scrap it with the problems you have had with you TPS and now the engine and go to e85.
What do you guys think happened, popped ring land? What kind of spikes of detonation did you see, voltage wise? Was it just a quick spike or multiple spikes that would tell you detonation is really present?

I'll work out the issues w/meth, and may de-tune it to 600whp on pump and keep it there.
Above 600whp, run 116 for "the number" and call it a good day.
I never had any smoke out of the catch can, so when I saw it puffing out pretty hard I knew there was a problem.
Leak down test confirmed it. I'd say ringlands are done for, but I'll know more this Sat.
It was a quick couple spikes once the boost started to get above 25psi.
My i/c is a Precision 600, so I'm thinking it was reaching max efficiency and just not pulling the heat out of the motor and w/the added boost it rocked out.
I'm pretty sure I'll keep stock compression and go back to stock pistons, as they are the cheapest and I'm confident it will make that #.

I have seen a few issues with different cars all running a single nozzle at the TB for meth. With the intake manifold design of the S2000 a direct port meth kit will work a ton better.
I'm going to weigh my options and figure it out.
Best bang for my buck really.
