Who built your motor?
For those with built engines. Who built your engine, what parts were used and how much did it cost?
I recently turbocharged my AP1 S2000, i had it tuned at church automotive and it made 308whp @ 6psi. Then right after a top speed run, i came back and the engine was knocking, it seems to be in the head but i have no idea where its comming from. (the knock is loud at idle but is silent after 1400rpms or so, unlike a rod knock that just gets louder the harder you rev it) I am looking to rebuild and i think somthing in the 450 to 500whp range is where i want to be at. I know my turbo setup has alot to do with how much power will be made but i just need an engine that i know can handle it. I know i want a full Valve train(springs, retainers, valves, seals, everything) and somewhere around 9:1cr pistons. Im know that the S2000 internals are forged from the factory, so im not really worried about the rods or crank. Also if you have any recommendations as to if im on the right track or not that would be great.
