Talking My S2K replacement

Well, here is my new car. About a month old, and enjoying every day of her. My goal for this car is about 400-450 to the wheels, all AMS products. So far I have:
AMS Intercooler
AMS 3" turbo back exhaust
AMS Upper and lower intercoler piping with HKS SSQ BOV
AMS Small Battery kit
AMS ECU flash
Apexi Ground Kit
ARC Ti Knob
Swift Springs
Mitsubishi Rain Gaurds
35% tint all around except rear window which is 15%
Carbon Fiber Vortex generator(not installed)
Carbign Carbon Fiber liscence plate cover
Carbign Carbon Fiber Exhaust Cap
MR tail lights
Friday I will be installing my 5 Defi BF gauges and will post pics this weekend. I will also be powder coating my wheels flat black when ever I can figure a way out to get my wheels to the shop. My next step in a month is an AMS head package and AMS waster/alcohol injection, and another flash. At the current time I sit at 314 AWHP/ 293TQ. Enjoy, more pics to follow in a couple days.

















What I gave up for her:

I like the tails and the window visors. Is your insurance cheaper with the EVO?

I payed $22k for her, with upgrades.

And my insurance is cheaper with the Evo, I pay $124.59 every three months, full coverage through State Farm.

Nice pickup. I love those cars, but their drivetrains scare me. Fear of it breaking moreso scares me. Sick ride though.

The Evo is built like a tank, dont let the idiots bashing them scare you. If I could have built my Evo over again, I would have used all AMS parts. They make the best products for the Evolution. I had a sponsorship through a shop that used all Buschur products, and I regret using them. There are days I miss my Evo, but I am glad to have my S2000 now. Good luck with the build, Martin will treat you right. A good friend of mine drives their One Lap car. It is a beast.
