I'm just starting with 6 psi for a while to see how things go, I'll definitely be turning it up at some point. I actually drove the car to work today just to play a little. It's going back in the shop tomorrow to tear everything down and send it off. It felt quite different having power below VTEC. My VTEC is set at 5600 RPM's (via Apex V-AFC) but is not quite as noticable since you in boost at that point. I was taking it pretty easy for the most part but did a couple of third gear pulls on the highway and it's fast. I had a 99 Eclipse GS-T that I traded on my S2000 that was fairly modded (ran 12's) and have been missing the highway power that it had. I don't miss it anymore, can't wait to get a hold of the first unsuspecting C5 and spank him.

derryck,
I am interested and the $6K seems reasonable but I'm concerned about the stress on the clutch, drivetrain, LSD mechanism and whatever other parts might be stressed beyond the loads that they were designed for. Also I assume that any included or extended warranty would be voided.

Littleton,
I am leaving the stock clutch in for while so I don't run into some of the drivetrain issues that have been encountered by some of the other modded cars. I already have another clutch but I'm waiting to figure out how the Comptech fix for the diff. works out. I believe that with their fix and a better clutch, there shouldn't be any problems.
