This whole "the S2000 is not a drag racer" is getting pretty old and feable. I think you better tell this guy:

ET ............ 11.1 sec. @ 126 mph.
Oh, what kind of "Z"? If it's a 350Z, that's a high 13 second car. If yours does it in 12.41, it didn't do it "out of the box".
edit: Nevermind about the "Z". I just saw in your sig that it's a Vette.

it just will take a lot to make it a dragster.. great little autox car.. but not really a drag car..
major mods..
you must spend lots o $$ for a 1/4 mile car.. that is what i meant..

Wow - I didn't know that about the Comptech installed at a dealer. Would IK24 sparks and a tuned VAFC constitute as tuning the engine further? 
And what's the buzziness you speak of from the 4.44?

How do I find one of these types of dealers?
If you live near Hardtopguy in Ohio, you have the perfect dealer right there. They've done many.

I understand the desire to mod your car - its FUN! - But as to what to do first - that depends on what you see yourself doing with your car - If your looking for fast of the line drag racer - you have a lot of mods to do - If you see it as a GT road racer - you have a lot of mods to do!!!! If you want to do the show car Bling-bling thing - you have alot of mods to do!!!!!
IMO this would be first
If I drag -1. final gear set with reinforced diff.
2. CAI or supercharge
3. Exhaust
If I auto-x / road race - 1. tower and x-brace
2. CAI or Supercharge
3. gearset and reinforced diff.
If I show the car - 1. Upgrade stereo and interior
2. large dia. wheels and tires
3. Body Mods - lot & lots of body mods
The beauty of this car is not just it's outstanding performance, but that it can be any one of the cars above. Now if I was independantly wealthy, this is my list.
Supercharge - x-brace/ tower brace - bling the engine compartment - exhaust and header - light weight clutch and reenforced diff with 4:57 gears - vented hood and gt wing - 19" wheels and tires - gauge set and electronics for cabin - stereo upgrade - custom paint job - (sigh) Mayby I'll win the lottery
