S2000 Forced Induction S2000 Turbocharging and S2000 supercharging, for that extra kick.

Thinking about raising the redline

Off the top of my head, I think I paid 780 for all the components from Laskey Racing.

Supertech dual valve springs
Supertech Ti retainers
Supertech Stainless intake valves
Supertech Inconel exhaust valves
Supertech dual spring locators
Supertech valve guides
Actually I think I paid 680 or so for everything... LOL my bad.

Wow! $680 for supertech dual valve springs/ti retainers/spring keepers, inconel ex valves, stainless in valves and valve guides? Thats awesome! Where did you get it all from? Laskey? How much was it for machining the deck to make sure it was straight and valve seats and putting it all together? So also, laskey will do all this for $875? Thats almost half of what i was quoted by another shop!

FYI, the titanium stuff will need to be inspected more frequently and will not last very long, i would stay OEM (AP2) for Springs & Retainers, as far as valves spend the $300 and get new ones, just make sure the Exhaust ones are the special coating.....

BC carries two types of retainers; stainless and titanium.

I don't know how you feel about BC's products, Andy, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
