Default Block Strengthening mods for the s2000?

I was wondering if they had block mods yet for the s2000 engine such as pistons, connecting rods, iron sleeves, etc. etc.

There is a turboed s2k getting around Australia with a sleeved block and custom low compression pistons. It runs some serious boost and puts out well over 400hp.

well.... are there any companies in development of rods, sleeves, pistons, etc etc?

I think it would rock to run a roots type charger and a big ass turbo, kind of like that set up at overboost.com, a supra with a roots type supercharger and twin turbos.

You sure about the roots type supercharger + twin turbos? That doesn't make any sense. It's better to stick with one. I never heard of a supercharged supra, and there is no need when the whole system of the is setup to be turbo'ed.

I didn't mean I wanted to put twin turbos

I said I liked the twin turbo plus roots type charger set up on the skyline...

What I meant was, It would be phat to have a bigger turbo, and a roots type charger for the low end, just like that skyline, just an idea.
