Ctsc not much of a difference?
with a 9psi pulley with my fmic, ive been making around 5.5 psi. seemed much faster but wasnt very surprising. Last night after checking the belt it seemed a little loose, so i made it a bit tighter and make 6.5psi. 1psi seemed to make a pretty big difference.
ive been trying to look for dynos of ppl running in the 5-7 psi but only found a couple.
5psi seems to make around 280whp, and 6 psi around 300? so im guessing 6.5 would be a tad over 300?
i know every car will put down different numbers, but does anyone have a dyno with stock ecu at 6.5psi? just want to see what i might be able to expect

Right at 300, perhaps a little below, is a good estimate for you to throw at it when people ask how much it makes. Like you said, every car is different and certainly every dyno brand will give you outrageously different numbers. I wouldn't bet money on any specific number, but as an estimate its fine.
The first time I actually noticed how much faster my car was after installing my CT kit wasn't until a few months later when I drove another person's NA S2000 and said, "Man this thing feels slow!" Getting back in my car I thought, "Well dang, I guess it did make a pretty big difference." For some reason I didn't notice it as much after install either. It takes a good back-to-back comparison to really show you how different the car feels.

Yep I agree, just say 300whp. Its a very fair estimation.
At this boost level there is a good amount of hp but not a lot of extra trq and its all higher in the rpm range so it really doesn’t "feel" that much faster, but it is. Its just the butt perception isnt accustomed to it yet. When you get right about 10psi that’s when this kit really starts to wake up and "feel" fast. until then just enjoy the ride. Boost is addicting. A base Comptech kit just wets your pallet for more I have always said. It certainly did for me. Now that I’ve maxed out the NV1000. I’m moving to the bigger NV1200 and aiming for 450-500whp. I will be content with this for my Road/track car.
But again, an fmic on this kit isnt ideal, it really numbs the foot to engine response and you wont ever be able to overcome the boost loss to maximize the power out of the kit. Really should have an aftercooler.

it is addicting i've been at 7 psi for 3-4 months and have a 3.6'' pulley just waiting till i can get injectors and aj aka s2konroids to help me tune and look out 350 hp. at 7 the car per gtech pro 310-325 depending on weather and that's with an emanage and meth injection, stock injectors and an rrfpr ,header free flowing exhaust, test pipe and cooling mods.the stock pulley got old quick, the ap2 pulley is nice especially at low speeds. its when your above 100 mph on some back roads that's when i long for more power good luck and were i'm at power wise i can put 3-4 cars on an n/a s2000 even with mods i've run 13.5 et in the 1/4 mile also with gtech pro. although i wouldn't advise launching the rear parts are delicate and wheel hop is the enemy that is what breaks the most parts in drag racing right next to missing a gear
Yep, when I first got my comptech in, It didn't feel any faster, it actually felt slower. But after a few months, I started to realize it was much faster. I think I have a 3.9" pulley. So around 8psi. I'm only putting down 294whp though, which I was kind of upset about, Since I do have 750cc injectors and a AEM ems.
loose the FPR and Get tuned and you find some power for sure.
Jeff Evans found 35whp on my first setup by doing nothing other then what I mentioned above. He simply removed the CT FPR, put the stock one back on the car and tuned with EMS>

Ya as much as I would like to keep throwin money, I need to hold off a little. Till then Ill have to manage using stock ecu. But thanks for the insite guys, definitely feels nice to be part of the boosted community.
I'll have to drive my friends n/a ap2 to really compare again. I forget what that felt like hahaha
