I'm also holding out for the coldside setup, mainly due to light weight and much lower cost.
Dayum these SC kits are taking a long time to finish.

Back when SOT was BRP, they stated that the coldside S2000 kit was no longer in development. I wouldn't hold my breath...

I've lost faith in these guys to make a kit for the s2000 and the miata. I feel sorry for all the people who put deposits down. I will no longer be buying a kit from them.. just my opinion which means nothing except a lost sale...

They've been selling Miata kits for years... how could you lose faith in them for that?

Yep, I should have mentioned that I'm hoping for the coldside kit that Fast Forward Superchargers is developing, not BRP. FFS says $3700, a lightweight kit (37 lbs?) and CARB. They use a 5th injector to cool the charge and supplement fuel.
Lots of advantages to this setup. The only downside might be that without an intercooler/aftercooler option, you will be limited to the max power you can make. I'm ok with that though, as long as it can deliver >300 whp and a nice fat street torque band that the PD Eaton MP62 should deliver.

I was one of the 'proposed' Beta testers-to-be, way back when............ lost a couple hundred when I pulled out months ago.

Not to thread hi-jack, but I ended up going turbo - InlinePro kit, installed by InlinePro. I'll have to deal with emissions issue in another year or so, and it could be somewhat painful but will get by somehow........ I am someone use to speed (sportbike racing) and 425hp in the S2K feels about right - straight line I could use a bit more, but on roads with twisties it's PLENTY quick. Install and service was second to none, and I'm glad I went for more power than a S/C kit. Total cost, including labor was about $9K................. and the kit's good for 550hp or so with a built bottom end. Pop the hood and ask someone to find the turbo and it usually takes 'em at least a minute - the kit is THAT clean.

Off to install InlinePro's rear diff conversion kit............ one month post turbo and my (Comptech reinforced) rear is blown. Speed costs, speed kills, but speed is a rush........... that's why they call it 'speed'.

I don't like the 5th injector method of fueling. What's to say #4 will get the same fuel as #1? With 11.3:1 compression, this isn't something I'd like to fool around with. It could work for a low boost setup, but I'd rather have all 4 injectors putting their own fuel out to each cylinder.

Is water injection possible? How much would it help?
