DO you the owners of turbo s2000, daily drive your cars and how offen do you take it over 6 pounds of boost. I really worried about blowing my motor.

What Richard said....
If you can't afford to fix it then I wouldn't advise it. I drove mine daily and never at anything less than about 8 psi but I ALWAYS ran a blend of pump gas and race gas (112-116 octane depending on my mood). If you're worried about it and you don't even have one... I highly recommend against it. You'll be in a constant state of worrying.

If you are really worried about blowing up a blown F20C motor you should've gone with the SC and keep the stock internals and keep it safe(?)

We al know S2k was never meant to be FIed. S2000 is the king of N/A world. That's the beauty of this whole thing

If you are going to baby your turbo S2k and never rev to 9k on ragular basis and lower the compression then why bother?
Since you have everything ready already well good luck
