I want my s2 to push around 500-600 hp and is it possible to have it with that much power and have a nice setup with some rpf1's and a little offsit with no camber slammed?
I think you should read through this thread:
Boost isn't cheap

Your profile says you're 16 years old....do you really have $10k++ to throw at this car to boost it correctly? Do you have another car to drive when the S2K is down (and it will be down at times most likely)?
i got the money and i also have a 91 crx si with b20 vtec swap.

Then Boost away!!!

But seriously...research first! A lot of the mistakes I made with my build could have been avoided if I had done more homework.

I've looked into it and researched for about 4-5 months now and i have a pretty good idea exactly what my price range is, but as of now am just trying to drop my car and get ap2 head and tail lights.

i would suggest you do A LOT more research...i can already tell you know absolutely nothing about this car...and being since your a 16 year old kid, youll probably wreck it before you get anywhere near 500hp

Do neither. Spend your money on seat time at a local track with a good club and instructors. Go against the grain that is so stereotypical of teenagers with a some pocket change and an itch to "modify" hondas. Please.
