Default Fastest S2000 in detroit?

http://detroit.craigslist.org/cto/1114537044.html
lol i dont want to be mean cus it looks like a nice setup hes got going there but to claim the fastest s2000 in detroit with just 292whp is insane.
makes me want to drive up there when my turbo is in just to claim the title lol.

Hmm. It was making 338whp when flexer sold it to him.

The ad makes him sound like a tool. But at least the price is reasonable.

I know, but why would anyone lower the boost from 7.5 to 6psi?

Longetivity. And when you're making that much power... that little drop isn't so much.

Yeah, I doubt someone that is advertising about his "fast" car is worried about the longevity that comes with 1.5psi drop.

It makes me concerned that he was having problems at higher boost. By the mod list, he should have all the supporting hardware to run the 7.5 without a problem.

Something sounds a little fishy.
