This is very common with turbos and the s2000. You need a oil filter relocation kit. I recommend the inline pro one becuase of the the great figment.

I have a relocation kit but when trying to put it on it hits the turbo and I can not tighten it up. Also looks like there is not enough room for the hoses.

This may be a solution. There is a template provided to check fitment.

Which relocation kit (block) are you using? I'd recommend ditching the water section completely; use a civic oil filter holder (http://www.amazon.com/Honda-90015-PH.../dp/B00AJUZPGA). Using the aforementioned setup will give you the requisite clearance.
