I can put in a request for a all motor forum. No guarantees we can get one.

Just don't see the point in splitting FI into 2-3 forums that cover the same thing 1 does now. It will just make it more difficult to moderate.

I agree. I can't see any point in making seperate turbo and SC forums. All motor seems like it would be signifigant enough to warrant it's own forum though. I mean, this car was designed to be an extreme version of a factory all motor car. Why not have a forum that lets people dig heavily into their motors, all the while sticking to the original design theme. It's be nice to have a place to research what works and what doesn't, to see how crazy you can get on just the motor, and to learn little tips and tricks on how to make decent gains without sacrificing much.

I mean, we have motorcycle, politics, and computer subforums on an S2000 website. But we can't have a technical forum for all motor builds? Seems kind of weird to me.

And if there's a shortage of moderators.... just let me know

My whole deal is I hate sifting through the turbo threads when I wanna know something about supercharged s2k's, and same when I'm looking for turbo information, or nitrous information.

No offense, there isn't "that" much difference between the 3.

All require some type of engine management, as well as being more abusive to the drivetrain than NA

Agreed.

Sub forums make browsing an absolute nightmare. I hate having to browse 12 different sub forums just to find one post that's interesting or somewhat new. The SC and Turbo guys are so similar that I can't see splitting them up. There's a lot to learn from both sides.

You could probably take all of the nitrous posts since S2KI began and still not fill a single page...

Need a hand?


Subdivided would be nice for all motor / FI but I don't really feel a split up between different "forms" of FI is necessary. Maybe just make a greddy FAQ sticky that has "USE A CAT" and "GET IT TUNED" in bold face

Hey, why not a different forum for each colour!

Seriously, much of what applies to turbos applies to SCs. I've never been convinced NAWZ falls under the heading FI but as has been said, it's a minority.

I do think an 'All Motor' forum is a good idea if only so the NA fanatics don't cry every time they see the horsepower us FI guys are putting down.
