Default Force Induction

Hey guys!

I made my choice to get Honda S2000.

I am trying to get Turbo or Supercharged, even N/A.

How many HP and TQ I can get for each. I want to make some upgrade on HP and TQ.

I am looking for JDM.

I know Greddy making Turbo kit for S2000.
HKS?
SuperCharger?

or should I stay for N/A for safe side.

Your profile says 2008, you really don't have much choice especially since you said "I am looking for JDM".

So I say NA?

i'm on the fence too. i can stay NA and just add a piggyback. nitrous is cheap for some once in a while fun. i'm waiting on the sos sc kit to see if i should consider it as an option, cheaper than others but still a chunk of money...

Go to the FI Forums. It's all there but as mentioned your limited with your MY08 for now.

Search the FI forum .. there is loads of info there on turbo & supercharged. Unless you have a lot of $$$ don't even consider trying to increase the hp NA .. you are not going to get very far and it is going to cost you a lot

Make the search your friend, there is loads of info on your question. Make sure you read up about it before making a decision and ask questions specific to the '08 once you have read and understand everything and have searched for those questions .. people will be much more willing to help that way round

Saying "JDM" doesn't mean much and is definitely not known to be the best bang for the buck (J's, Amuse, etc all cost a crapload).

I know Kraftwerks currently makes a nice supercharger for DBW cars or you can modify the Greddy turbo kit for it (just to let you know it doesn't make nearly the power as an inline pro, vortech, comptech, etc.). Wait until vortech rolls out with one, but expect to dish out $6k + for the kit, tune, clutch, install, etc...

Going N/A will not yield you a whole lot of power, maybe upwards of 20WHP with headers, intake, exhaust, tune which isn't worht the cost IMHO.

lol I love when someone says JDM as its a trend. If you want JDM then I hope you can dish out the cash for it. My main thing is if your going "JDM" then do not buy knockoff parts.

Since you have an 08 then your best bet is NA because you can swap the car back to stock easy w/o voiding your warranty.
