Its just getting to the point where I just want to be able to drive the car and not deal with all these headaches. Its getting over whelming now. Its like problem after problem and a TON of money. While I knew what I was getting into at first and I have done a turbo build on my Integra, this S2000 was a step above that with the whole clutch and fuel install. I had a clutch and flywheel installed by a mechanic on my integra. Its also a drive and hard to go check on the car since it is not close by. I can't go on the week days because its difficult to get off. I rather it be done on the weekday if they have the chance to and pick it up on the weekend rather than have the car sit long and wait till the weekend.


We shall see what happens and what comes of this stupid build I have got myself into

I don't know how you guys like watcbing your car get tuned. It's boring unless your the one tuning. They do like five power pulls that are awesome. Everything else is part throttle and tip in etc lol. Boring!

Yep big power turbo cars are a huge headache and you need to keep a constant watch on things, but when you finally do hit boost it will all be worth it. You will love the torque you get compared to a centrifugal charger. I would rather you be there while I tune the car honestly.

I was doing some looking into with the starter binding with the flywheel. Is it possible that the drive train can be turned to realign it with the starter and that maybe the problem? The fact that when it pops out it hits the flywheel and it just needs to be turned? I didn't see any information as when the wheel goes on that there is any kind of adjustment. Also could it have something to do with the Hydaulic throw out bearing?

That means they're doing it right. Some 'tuners' will only do WOT power pulls...
