In my S2k dedicated track car, I have put the Momo Start and the momo supercup in. Great looking seats for the price. the Start is for a little bit bigger guy and the supercup for the under 180 guy.
They use all the same mounts and all as Sparco... and FIA
You absolutely can not beat the start for the price I found at LTB.

thats shipped!
I would buy more if I had more expendable money.
But* the Start is wider and you will have to slightly crush in the rolled lip peice on the side edge of the tranny tunnel. You wont have to with the others.
I sat in a Momo Start this past weekend and it was not a good fit for me (Don't recall if it was waist or height but I think it was height.) Great prize though, as you mentioned...

Is anyone running a Kirkey Intermediate? Would like to hear impressions of fitment and install...
Hello there! It is Alex from the NJMP-RTR event in black S2k... Just got back from stable energies after trying bunch of seats too. And I have exact same problem. The only seats which fit me in terms of position of the shoulder hole is Kirkey or Recaro Pro Racer ($1600) seat.. Did you end up getting Kirkey?

Alex! The snow up here has kept me from doing anything. Stable Energies just got the Evo 2 Plus which I am going to try. I also fit well in the Recaro Profi XL. Both seats are under $1,000.

Kirkey is very comfortable, but keep in mind it's a fixed position seat so you need to be ok with that...

Yeah - I know that - but on the bright side - you can get seat an inch lower if you do no sliders... I kinda want this regardless to get little more clearance on top
