My turbo project
Ive always wanted to turbo my car recent cars and the s2000 is a beast when its boosted lol
anyways im looking at doing a custom kit or used kit.
-Tuners and Shops-
-if you wanna give me a quote or anything on a turbo and everything thats needed with it please pm me
Goals
-make 300whp daily driving
-make 400whp when i race
-rebuild rear end after i install and tune turbo
heres what i wanna do
-buy a manifold, downpipe and intercooler that all fit together. (bolt on)
-currently looking at turbos (reccommend me any)
-im looking at a nice BOV (loud and nice recommend me any)
-what engine mangement should i go with? im gonna buy that first.
-If things look pricy i will consider a used turbo kit.
-I wanna install and learn everything.
-Im a lil cheap on things but i have to do this right
Other
-post any websites that are awesome
-Once i install it i will post pictures.
Thanks for Looking

Cheap = never equals reliable power.
Look into VTECs2k's kit.
I think you should probably buy a IP kit, you will have good results and easy install
Since your an 01, i suggest you get the AEM EMS 1052/6052

For engine management I would go standalone. If you have emissions in your state you probably should go K-Pro as it will "pass" the OBDII Diagnostic test whereas the AEM EMS will not.
I have the ultimate racing kit and make 310whp at the base wastegate pressure of 8psi.
You will need a new clutch.
You should also get gauges to monitor at least:
Wideband O2 sensor and Gauge to monitor AFR
Boost
Oil Temp
Oil Pressure
and if you get an EMS then you will need a water temp gauge as well.
Obviously this is not in-depth info at all, but my best advice is this:
Decide what exactly what kind of turbo setup you want (power, transient response/lag, mid-range, max power, etc)
Research and pick a kit that meets your needs.
Find a good installer/tuner even if you have to go a little farther to do so
DO NOT CHEAP OUT. Inevitably, the part you cheap out on will be the one that fails. Failure with FI can be very expensive.

I think as right now, Mase's full turbo kit, comes w/everything for $6500 pre-tune, pump gas around 400whp+. Best bang for the bucks.
Mase 904 268 3001
