very hard, thats why only one kit does this. The blower spins the opposite way the S2000 needs it to spin

I don't feel this kit is going to produce the numbers people are hoping.

So design a compressor wheel that spins the right way while facing forward. Novi has clockwise and counterclockwise versions of their blowers. Picking a blower that isnt suited well for an application then spending tens of thousands in R&D to make a kit is just poor planning by HKS.

Although its nice to have yet another choice in how to boost the S2000, I doubt it will surpass the versatility of the SOS kit already proven to be the best bolt on solution for our car.

It will be the case. The rotrex on spins one way for a reason.

What difference does the impeller rotation direction make?? (I never knew it made a difference)
