Turboing the S
Alright I have basically everything I need, the T3/T4 turbo, wastegate, intercooler, blow off valve, boost controller and gauges. I'm going to also need a manifold and downpipe. Anyone have suggestions on places to buy these two items, and is there anything else you would do motor wise ex. pistons, rings, etc to make it more reliable and push lets say 12-15 pounds of boost? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Manifold and downpipe depend on your power desires
12-15 lbs of boost you might want to build your motor (sleeve, pistons rods)

no chance of 12-15 safely on stock motor. get an aem ems while youre at it. any turbo company like fullrace, lovefab, UR, revhard are gonna make a decent manifold; like the previous post mentioned, it comes down to what u want. youre gonna want a 3" dp if youre gonna run 12-15 psi. get a 3" exhaust, injectors, fuel pump; the list goes on and on.-Chris
Our mini-me fits the S2000's GREAT and outperforms any of the "log" manifolds that some companies choose to utilize.
Full-Race is great if you can afford them, but you have to relocate your oil filter.
Just putting in my $.02
Oh, we plan on building downpipes to fit the different turbos(T3 4 bolt, 5 bolt and T4 Vband) than our "kit turbo", as that is specially made for us.
