No body has mentioned the trackforged kit yet. I think it sounds the most appropriate for what he is looking for. Sidewinder kit that doesn't require any relocation of anything and the manifold won't crack. Trackforged kit with a gt3076 gets my vote.

at 6psi im making 310whp with pfabs log manifold and a gt3076r. i will warn you that the first week i got tuned 310hp felt like a completly different car. i was so amazed on the power increase. 2 weeks later.... I WANT MORE ! ! ! ! !
If i were you, i would buy a equal length manifold and at least a 3076r with 1000cc injectors. this way you can hit your goal of 350hp on extremely low boost and when you do get tired of it (trust me it will probably happen) you can always get a lot more power with nothing but a different tune.

The s2000 is a great platform, but there are some things to know to avoid any pitfalls. I am actually working with two other guys at the shop right now to put together a comprehensive FAQ on all the different turbo configurations and the +/- of each.
to the OP - the front mount kits have their benefits, but many also have their downfalls. im sure the guys at FR would be happy to help answer any questions you have or you can contact me also. Once our FAQ is online (hopefuly 1-2 more weeks) i think it will help to answer a lot of questions

I would be in the same market as the OP. I am currently thinking about selling my S and buy a S15 because I want to have some boost.
My problem is I live in Ireland therefore this will make parts etc a lot harder to source.
I have read through this thread and there is some good info. Can anyone give me some websites on turbo kits and where you guys recommend best

I'd put it like this. Under 500whp is a great daily. Mine at 450 has been fine. Minus the dump tube issue of course. But that is not hp specific problem. Under 500 you don't break trans and diff in gear.
