I don't need 10k to build a GOOD turbo kit. i just want a good kit and i can save for all of the other parts!! 5k will get me a kit EASY. just looking thru S2ki there isn't a single WHOLE kit selling for even 7K so 10k is crazyness. there is a shop here that does really good exhaust work ie. welding for cheap.
gamble:
damn i guess all i need is an intercooler now and ill be boosted to 550
damn thanks for the advice

Take as much advice and learn as much as you can before starting so you achieve what you want in your build. Dsddcd is a very reliable and intelligent person when it comes to S2000. He has been through several setups and knows his stuff. I have been around the block to say and have some time/money wrapped up in the S2000 as well.
Do some searching in the Forced Induction forum on the SC vs. Turbo debate. Both can be reliable when done right. Each prefers his own. I like my SC setup but not to say Turbo isnt the way to go as well.

Honestly, if you're making that much power, I would go ahead and get a diff from puddydad. Look him up on the boards. You can get a 3.80 final drive cryo treated. That will help your gas mileage AND give you a higher top speed.

I like the stock gear ratio. If I wanted a beefier rear end Id go big and go for the Ford 8.8 rear. I already have one in the garage.




but makes your engine bay look so nice.
