Default Question for those experienced S2K owners!!!!!

I am still new to the S2000, and I have read that the stock S2K runs in the 14's in the quarter mile. What mods do I need to do to run in the 13's.....and then what type for the 12's? I have learned a lot from reading from you guys, and your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Hotwheels

I suggest poring over the Under The Hood forum with the search engine. Lots of good insight in there. Search Turbo and Supercharger.

Sometimes, it takes no mods to run 13's like "Sev" and many others, only to know how to launch and shift the car really well and to have a strong stock power train. Sometimes, all it takes is to remove the passenger seat to run a "claimed" 13.6. (I don't think the removal of the seat made any difference.)
It took a turboed car to get into the 12's.

You're going to hear it a lot on this forum--the S2000 is not the best choice for a drag car. It's quick, but making it significantly quicker in a straight line is not cheap.
