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

Greddy Upgrade (theoretically speaking)

not sure if this is what he was talking about, but yes there is a boost cut in the basemap for the AP2s. But this can be changed no problem. It was just a safety set in there by the greddy techs.

There has been 2 (I think) guys with headgaskets and the greddy turbo kit, both of which have said its completely not worth it; you'll make less power then just boosting 10psi with stock compression.


As I've said before, this kit was designed for 300ish hp, NO more without upgrading the turbo and then at that point, why even bother with this kit?

well, my plan within the next 6 months is to run an aquamist kit and retune boosting 12 psi on stock compression.

i'll let you guys know how it goes.

If you upgrade the turbo, you technically won't pass emissions anymore. The carb certification is for that particular turbo only...

Could you post some more information?

Which headgaskets and engine managements were used? What was the boost after the headgasket installation? Is there any other mod?

It was 3mm and emanage ultimate if I can remember. Not sure of other mods I would assume he had full supporting mods. He didn't even say how much power it made after the HG install and upping the boost because it was an "embarrassing number"

Moral of the story, be happy at 10psi and ~300hp. If your not, well you bought the wrong kit for anything more then 300ish hp.
