Preferably if done on those dynojets instead of those inertia types.
I've seen some on company's like MG & Comptech but I like to see if anyone done the dyno themselves to compare.

Also, let me search the forum...
Thanks,

Here's one that I did last year on my S2K. I believe run 004 was done in fourth gear after it cooled off a bit. The only mod was a K&N filter (airbox installed).



'01 SY Boxster S

Duffy,
Seems like that K&N is good for like hp at the wheel...
Usually S2k gets 197-205hp... (from what I read off the search results).. You now have a Boxster S??

I was a bit surprised by the numbers myself. I remember the Reverend had a couple more horses than I, but I was quite pleased. The car did have a few miles on it prolly around 5K at the time of the test. I just picked up a Boxster S a couple of weeks ago. I have this problem...I change cars way too often.

I've been considering seeking professional help. I haven't a clue what the next car will be...I'm kinda afraid to even think about what it'll cost! I need to settle down and get married...NOT!

S2000 is very good looking.. would make a perfect 2nd car for me next to my M3... but the aftermarket mods seems to be very pricey...(even worse than BMWs)... Since I'm planning to mod the hell out of my 2nd car (though not planning on force induction)... but $1200 for intake (mugen) and $1000 for exhaust (MG?) is a bit too much for me....
Looking for alternatives.. maybe MR-S?? (Though that thing is just plain ugly next to the beautiful S2000)

The S2000 stock is an awesome car. You really don't need to do anything with the engine. If you really want to have fun sign up for a driving school (like the Porsche Driving Experience) and put your money to good use. Like the old saying goes it's always cheaper to buy a car with the power you want then to add it later. Personally, I would save the money and use it for a school or save a while longer and go with a blower.
