Don't forget a 6sp C5. That car is mid-high 12's with an air filter and exhaust, and has a much higher top speed than the S2K. I would hate to think how hard a C5 would go if IT were supercharged as well!

Still, the Comptech sounds VERY appealing. However, is there any improvement in low down power?

So, Ultimate Lurker, how is the Rex anyways?

Oops, is that an identity breach? Why all the secrecy? Do you have a vested interest in that other Honda board?

Just curious.

 

I hear constantly how fun a SC'd car is to drive... but I cannot drive the SC'd car in my garage (I just finished installing the SC) because my new wheels haven't arrived yet (old ones are long since sold)...

It's like waiting until 600mi to VTEC for the first time!! I can't stand the anticipation!!!

Okay, just venting

 

Sime, the LS1 cars actually are monsters with turbochargers. 450 wheel hp is not uncommon. Don't mess with them. Jim was telling me a stock Z06 dyno'd the same day he did. The Z06 put down 320-330 wheel hp. Considering that the S2K is over 200 lbs lighter than the Z06, it would probably be a good race (but the Z06 would probably pull ahead). The regular C5 Vette puts down around 300 wheel hp and weighs more than the Z06, so it would be a good race, with the edge potentially going to the SC S2K (depending on heatsoak issues).

And Rob, hush! :-) I'm interested in merit, not reputation.

Great Post!

I think I'm going to frame it until mine comes in! Of course, I'll have to order one too.

S2K + 5K =

 

Thanks for the kind words Mr. Ultimate Lurker sir. Don't worry, your identity is safe with me superman!

For those interested, if you are in the Phoenix area and want to check the car out drop me a line.
