Default MY s2000 will be turbo'd

Starting at the end of the weel ICC Racing in Cathedral City, CA. Will be custom designing a Turbo kit for my car. They guarantee satisfactory and reliability. They said i can safely boost 30 pounds with all the stuff they will be re building... they also said "if you want we can have you safely put out 600 horspower" but thats a little rediculous.. oh well. ill keep everyone posted

At 30 pounds of boost, your engine should last about as long as the turbo lag.

well they said by rebuilding the bottom end an all that ic an safely boost 30 lbs.. would i probably not.. 600 horspower does have a nice ring to it.. .. however i think 18 lbs of boost would be sufficient for a daily driven car.. the guy whose designing/building it has an 12.13 1/4 mile all motor hatchback.. so i trust everything he is doing.. hes a genius in the motor department so im sure they will upgrade all the parts that need to be.. i.e. clutch and all that.. ill keep ya posted
