blueprint's K24 Powered S2000

I'm one of the few people that can appreciate the swap. That being said, I'm curious to know if the current setup is set to extract the most amount of reliable power from the k24 or is it a mild setup? Is there a possibility to squeeze out more power from this engine than what you have already shown us?
Similar setup with aftermarket intake manifold and E85

Not to mention all the E85 headaches you gain. (where to buy the stuff, is it really E85, now you gotta test it. Or buy the flex fuel sensor. My Haltech isn't setup for one so I have to buy the sensor, an I/O expander and a Can Hub box. $1000ish later and the thing still cant test for Moisture in the fuel).

I have a pretty simple build. It has a head built by Portflow which has full Supertech valvetrain as well as Porting but other than that it has bolt ons. Stage 2 Cams.
-Drop In Pistons.
-Stock Air Box
-F Series Intake Manifold
-91 Octane
I very well could just remove AC, Upgrade the Intake Manifold and run a less restrictive intake and probably gain 7-10hp with proper tuning. Im leaving power on the table however with my current tune as I believe the car is capable of a little bit more... Im doing homework currently and going to have the car re-tuned at some point.

I had a budget in mind when we put this together and more importantly I wanted the swap to look clean... If i didn't care about AC and Power Steering I very easily could've gained even more power.

Well said, It's not worth the extra headache.
