My setup is custom I am trying to reach 500hp at the wheels and be a every day driver. There is a kit coming out contact cjb80. I checked out cybernation and I am not crazy about set up, it looks like it wont produce 450 at the wheels. Problably cheaper than my setup. Hopefully they have a sleeved engine. Otherwise they wont run much boost..

Just a few questions, what size turbine/compressor is that, and why are the two things so varying in size?

Any reason to put the turbo in the front like that? Isn't the extra plumbing equating to higher prices?

The car wont be dynoed any time soon the built motor's head gasket didnt seal. Now I have to take car from Florida to Ohio. They have to install new motor. As for the question on turbo it is a custom Turbonetics 60-1, it is designed to spool at 3,500rpm and still give you the big horsepower. The piping has a better flow 4 into 1 and it is expensive for this setup, I dont recomend just for anyone..

wow, are you lowering compression, rebuilding the block? Looks like you're gonna have to invest some big $$ to accomplish your objective... good luck...

he invested in a Mike Simon motor. 20+ psi soon enough, can't wait to see how much power you make. As for the manifold, it will flow better bc it's a equal length tubular style and the only way to do that on this car is put it in front or up top to the left of the engine.

thanks for the reply, u didn't answer the question about the piggy back ecu that you are using. are u rebuilding the motor from bottom up? 500hp should be easily acheived with some dough, but wat makes your set up "better" than Cybernations unfinished kit. I'm not questioning your Turbo setup, I'm just looking at my options because I want a reliable Turbo kit for daily driving conditions like yourself. I hope your custom kit turns out well for the engine, because the setup is HOT AS HELL. latr

I am using a AEM computer with an O2 censor the AEM runs $1200.00 the o2 censor runs $1100.00 My setup is reliable I wouldn't run it at 22 pounds all the time. My engine is fully built for that much horsepower 9-1 compression and sleeved block. I am leaving in 2 hours for a week and cant answer while gone. I am not putting down Cybernation but I know my setup and theirs raises a lot of questions.......And yes that is an S2000 engine. It has a lot of mods and it is getting a lot Moore, but I have to wait for money tree to grow....Alex
