Assuming you are talking to me, the silver car is supercharged. That is not a turbo. As for supras and cheap Hp, well, for 5k I could have bought a Mustang, and for 20k, plumbed in an Incon Twin turbo system and made over 700rwhp. Whats your point? We're talking about S2000s here.

speed definately, the s2k already looks damn good from the factory...the oem accessories just perfect it IMO.

my ideal s2k:
-stock exterior except for oem front lip
-mild drop, just to decrease wheel gap and slightly improve performance
-vortech supercharger with aftercoolor
-all boltons, 3" catback exhaust
-stock wheels
-maybe oem hardtop


^perfect sleeper IMO with great looks

Why would you want to ask other people what you should do? If you like the looks of the car, don't change it. If you like the performance, don't change it. Do whatever makes you happy not other people.

I agree with razor, except for w/ 17" oz superleggas, not too overstated but beautiful at the same time

You let girls dance on your car?
its also spelt outrageous. You could just go get a lap dance, girls will dance for you all night long and it will cost way less than buying 19s and dropping it to the ground...

If I wanted a car that would encourage women to dance and strip around it, I'd buy an Aztec and tape $100 bills on the hood. What the hell is that? Then again, I'm 42 so maybe if I was 22, that kind of stuff would be important. Follow one rule and you'll be happy...
"whatever increases your enjoyment of the car, go ahead and do it."
If that means repainting the entire car gold and adding 19-inch black wheels, fine. If it means air-brushed Ninjas duking it out above your rear wheel wells, have at it. Speed is addictive but the key to life in general is everything in moderation. Spend some money on looks, spend a little on speed and handling. No reason why you can't have both.

Yeah but then I can have both the rims and the dances.. Why does someone buy a ferrari? Well they buy it to have attention or who the hell would waste that kind of money. I like the car its a nice ride, I dont think the S2000 had half the potential my Rx-7 had so trying to get it to go fast is really not worth it, it costs a hell of alot more and will go a hell of alot slower. There's no winning with that. Unless you guys can tell me differently. Anyone running 11's? let me know how. But I want to just enjoy the car. I want to have it like my Rx-7 was. It would be cool to have that again.

This car isn't meant for running 11's!!! This is a car you toss into the corners, sounds like you love RX-7s, why don't you get the RX-8 or another RX-7
