Yeah pretty much how I have been feeling. I haven't delt with the situation since it happend.

What happened was after they took it off the dyno the next day they went to fine tune it on e85 and I think cylinder 3 dropped a valve. Head is most likely done. Debating what route I wanna take now. Either find a low mileage 06+ motor or resleeving the bottom and building the bottom and finding a new head and upgrade it with super tech valve springs and retainers.


Not sure yet which route to take as I need a shop to do the work since I don't have the know how and retune on flex fuel which should be out by then on 10psi and call it a day. Not shooting for high hp anymore just want to drive it again. I've lost interest in this build now.

I haven't been on here very much after I got the bad news so haven't updated. Just done with the whole thing and trying to get it fixed and drive it. Don't care what power It puts down or how clean the bay looks.

 

sorry man i know the feeling, so much work and money with no return, keep ur head up, hopefully its not the end of ur s2000 journey

 

You'll still have a fun setup with 10psi.

 

I agree. If you decide to fix her keep it to a mild setup and enjoy her forever.

Yeah that's the plan guys most likely gonna rebuild the bottom, sleeve and do a mild build if I wanna turn up the boost someday.

 

That's your best bet! your luck isn't very good to buy a used block man...

Yeah they are freaking hard to find!

 

Good luck man. Things will turn around soon

 

I'm bros with Kyle (herecomesboost) and he has been keeping me in the loop with your build. Sorry to hear the bad news and best of luck with the rebuild!
