S2000 Forced Induction S2000 Turbocharging and S2000 supercharging, for that extra kick.

Awesome METH leaking everywhere :)

Might be the cure to your itch for more power... too. Spool with that manifold and turbo will be quick, too!

haha yeah, I am actually happy with the power now I love the Torque I just dont want any headaches. I need to save money for a house then I can go get my Viper leave the S for track days only (light track of course, not competitive).

My fiance is great, she doesnt mind if I get my Viper, she just requires we have a garage to put it in first.

Marry rich boys best MOD you can make haha

I originally wanted to go Turbo, but after thinking about all the turbo cars I had and the problems, I decided to go SC for the first time. I haven't had any problems since (knock on wood).

I had a b*tch of a time getting mine installed and up/running, but since it got on the road, I have not had a single hiccup. I have upgraded some stuff to add durability (steel braided lines, etc.), but nothing has "broken" yet.

I guess I should consider myself lucky that the BOV spring was the only thing I had to do to get it to "work" properly.

Hopefully your karma will come back around... At this rate, you are due for some enjoyment time behind the wheel!

I suggest upgrading to compression fittings.

Oh, didn't see his sig.

He doesn't really need meth injection for 12psi.

Yeah I am 12PSI but have it set to around 11.5ish and I went with METH more for an additional safety measure/detonation suppression then for the extra power

Well I believe I fixed the problem.

I pulled off my front fender looked around the silicone fittings where secure and not leaking, what I did find which scares the Sh*t out of me is the nylon tubing that goes from the pump to my intake pipe was disconnected!!!!!!!!!! It is a push lock type of system I have no idea how it popped out. This morning when I was low on fluid and filled it up and went for a spin I noticed WOT the AFRS where very high 11's and I did see an occasional 12.0 when usually I see high 10's low to mid 11's. I am thankful for a good tune for not blowing up my motor. The green light was lit when I was spraying the METH, because It was spraying it just wasn't spraying into my intake. If I went into Vtec on a warm day BOOM my engine is done. I secured it and put some strong tape around it to secure it.

I guess my fluid went fast because when it sensed boost it shot all of it right out and wasnt metered via my nozzle.

Also while removing my panel I made some deep scracthes in my door that I have to buff out now
Actually you run leaner on cooler days and richer on warmer days so if anything you would be more safe on a warm day.

Also high 11's to very low 12's is nothing dangerous

I'm also still not convinced you ever had predetonation because if you did your engine would have been long gone by now
