S2000 Forced Induction S2000 Turbocharging and S2000 supercharging, for that extra kick.

Would you buy a previously supercharged s2000?

Default Would you buy a previously supercharged s2000?

I found a ridiculously clean s2000 in the for sale section. The guy is willing to do a compression test in front of me too, but the car was supercharged (comptech) for 2,500 miles and returned to stock...

It is a 2000... 2 owner car.

It looks clean as hell but the boost concerns me. Why or why not would it be an issue as long as the compression test checks out?

I wouldnt even worry about comression numbers, looks like the guy took good care of the engine, u can tell sometimes just by looking at the car. And if he's willing to do a test then see what the numbers are nd drive the car. i say buy it because u'll never come accross a deal and a clean car like this.

I have delt with the seller before....Only good things! Only thing bad about the COMPTECH kit is you have to bend the front beam for the blower to fit, but you cant see that when the stock airbox is on, if you put and aftermarket intake on, you will see it.

You're worrying too much about compression tests.
