You should have no problem with a Cayman S. My stock Evo VIII slightly edged out a Cayman S from a roll.

EH, I never cared for the boxters. Don't like anything about them. Good kill. Always seems the guys who drive them are the younger/ "I'm better because I have a Porche" type.

PS. noticed you made 227whp on a mustang dyno. Thats movin' along pretty solid! for an S. What all have you done to it?

The cayman S is a mid 13 second car that normally traps 103-105ish. I have a vid from youtube showing a stock LS1 6-speed car taking one out repeatedly and your S2K performs almost identical to the avg. LS1 M6 based on your et/mph in your sig. I think you should edge it out.

well, run two setup. the one i run at the track and to the dyno is the one im running with right now. it consists of a KN drop in filter/custome made 70mm headerback/vafc2 tuned.

the other which i usually DD on is HKS exhuast/stock cat/vafc2(same tune)/KN drop in. never dyno'd that setup, but i ran consistant 13.7-13.8's on it so its not THAT bad, but its nice and quiet.

Do you have a header? I don't see it in your list even though I see "header-back". I know my friend's RSX-S knocked almost a full second off of his ET with a header/K-PRO combo.

nope the stock header. the stock header is VERY hard to beat.

What is this I have heard about a Megan header or something? It's something like $1500?

I did not know the S came with a header. my fault.

i think your thinking of the Mugen header, which is close to 1500. most of the aftermarket headers for the s2k make mid-range, not to many make any peak power. J's/TODA are the two biggest powermakers, at about 6-7 peak and 8-9 in the midrange.

Sounds good if you are trying for an all-motor build-up and need a "last mod". Peak hp is worthless anyways, you want AVG. hp over your usable rpm band.
