Has anybody seen the new Super Street with the new ELDA turbo for the S2K?
Looks GORGEUS! But for 6k 72hp seems kind of low.

 

check the s2000 talk threads.....

 

Thanks.
The search function is not working.

 

It's $6k for a Corky Bell designed CARB legal turbo kit. Well worth the money when you compare it to a $5500 S/C kit. It can spank a S/C'ed s2k even with 29Xrwhp just because of it's power curve on a turbo.

 

The turbo's power curve will definitely kill a SC'd car.


If this was only out about a year ago.......


Saying to myself:

Stop thinking about turbo, Stop thinking about turbo, already bought the SC. It's paid for. Stop thinking about turbo.........

 

Let's have a show of hands: Who paid $5.5-6K for their SC kit? If you did, lemme tell you, I got a bridge down here in the Keys that you NEED to have in your real estate collection.

All joking aside, I don't doubt the quality of Elda/Bell's kit (I have the new Super Street, just haven't had time to read it yet). But let's be realistic: for $6K, I could get an SC kit with AC boosting at 7.5 psi ($4K), an AEM EMS ($1.3K) and 550cc injectors ($400) and VERY easily throw down 315 whp -- as one of our local members just did 2 weeks ago at dyno day. That's a 115 vs. 72 whp increase in favor of the SC. Who's doing the spanking then, I wonder?

One thing I WILL admit: there is waaaay more upside potential with a turbo. But you're also talking waaaay more than $6K there too. Assuming a $6K ceiling, I still maintain that an SC kit for this car is the best bang for the buck. Period.

Flame suit on...

So here's the thread that actually has more info.....

Updates to kit since to article was done include having upgraded injectors + emanage etc....

BTW they list the TC as being rated for 500+HP

 

SHIT FOR AN EXTRA $1000 I WOULD SEND MY CAR DOWN TO FULL RACE...THEIR KIT IS 7G'S AND WHO'S HEARD OF FULL RACE KITS NOT MAKING POWER

 

what ever happened to Cybernation putting out a kit? Does anybody know? I was about to get their kit for my RSX S, found the S2k, and now can't really afford to slap some boost on either car.

 

Cybernation's kit for the S has been shelved as far as I know.
