Turbo vs. supercharger
Anyone have strong resources to compare turbo kits and superchargers specifically for S2000's? Website's??? How much HP gain and the risk's involved?

That is a turbo Dyno, at 8psi. You wont see a torque line like that with anything supercharger currently on the market.
Superchargers are generally much easier to install, but the power production will not touch a nicely packaged turbo system, all conditions equal.
Will you be installing yourself? A supercharger could probably be bolted on in under an hour(I would think never, installed one), while a turbo setup will take a full day, and thats with welding/drilling/tapping the oil pan for an oil return line.
It all comes down to what you want/need to satisfy your tastes.
This should be in the Forced Induction section too
Hint xviper, hint...
