Great feedback guys. I read through dsddcd's build thread, really good stuff. It really sounds like a complete kit especially for the price. Thanks the information all.

Go with a supercharger unless you really want to have a hell of a time f@*&ing with stuff. I had a hell of a time with my Inline Pro kit and the guy I sold my AFI kit to is having problems as well. Not to mention all the problems I have read about with other set ups.

IlovemyHonda1984 has a SOS stage 2 kit+E85 and has 500 whp.

The IP kit has a T4 flange, 3" IC Piping, larger DP....... It definatly has the potential to out flow nearly all other kits.

That is definatly true, but I would add that the PTunning kit seems to have promise.

I probably wouldn't turbo a car again that wasn't turbo from the factory. Just my .02 from the kits I have owned and other kits I have helped install/work on.

I just read dsddcd's build thread. I am also pretty good friends with him as well and his car is at 508 whp at 20 ish psi. Scott correct me if I am wrong. Joey's car (IlovemyHonda1984) I believe was at 19-20 psi and he had 513 whp.

I just think for the driveability and ease of installation I would go supercharger. If I were to keep my S2000 or buy one in the future I would do an upgraded Vortech you-tune kit or an SOS stage 2 kit.

From my experience first hand with 3 of the big turbo kit makers for S2000s (AFI, InlinePro, Mase) I wouldn't waste my money.

Yeah that is wrong

Joey made 509 / 350 and I made 508 / 361 on the same dyno and same conditions.

Everyone will get some nice vids and more on this soon and I can promise you the outcome was a surprise to both of us.

True, but he was on E85..
Big difference IMO

I know if I change anything it will be to a Ptuning kit, but my car is very fun and very reliable with my inline stage 1 kit right now.

OP- it all depends on the work you want to do, the money you want to spend, and what you want out of your car
