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

Is going FI worth it?

you have to routinely check your engine bay for oil leaks and etc... My whole car is rattling because the testpipe and downpipe are hitting my chasis and also the manifold+turbo are rattling like crazy also (don't know exactly why)

If you can afford to go turbo, that's the way to go. If not, the SC option does a nice job.

Its not crazy, but here is the first ever qtr mile run for me.....i ran a 13.7 here...As you can see i was more worried about red lighting then getting a good start. My 2nd run i ran a 12.8 @115, but then i got DQd for running under 14sec without a roll cage.

As for maintenance...You need to check/change your oil more often. Also your spark plugs, but other then that i dont do anything speical.

The Comptech kit is plug-n-play, easy to install, and trouble free. If those characteristics are important then it's a good choice.

Wait a minute! What track are you going to that disqualifies you for running under 14 seconds? That means that every stock Viper, Vette, Mustang Cobra, etc. would have to come from the factory with a roll cage to run there. That's insane!
I thought you had to be in the 10's to have to have a roll cage.
