Default SunAuto HyperGround system and HyperVoltage system

...would either of these, if not both, be good for a supercharged S??

What is it? Is it just another fancy "grounding kit"?

This is a modern vehicle. I think the Japanese have enough smarts to provide this car with enough grounding straps from factory. It's not rocket science.

Only the ones with reputable brand names printed on them will give you fully sik power. If you can find one on ebay with 'Mugen' printed on it that is the ticket. See if they'll throw in some stickers too. Good for another 5-10hp.

I've heard rumours in the "Bling" underground that Mugen and Turbonator have joined forces to market a set of grounding wires. They will sell them as "Mugenator" grounding kits. Preliminary spy photos of the Moostang dyno revealed that these kits will add about 15 WHP to a typical S2000 unmodded engine.
Note: WHP = White Hampster Power.

On a more serious note ........................ Any grounding kit, when installed on a car that is in "good" electrical system condition can show a gain of about 2 to 3 whp. However, the standard error and background noise of a typical dyno can be as high as 5. So what does that tell you?

Good marketing strategy >> effective product.

One thing about grounding kits that has always baffled me: I have no doubt in my mind that having all the extra copper will decrease resistance. However, just decreasing resistance in a circuit isn't always the right thing to do. Having the CORRECT amount of resistance for the application is the goal.
