Default Recommended shops for s2000 engine work and supercharger?

Hey guys my s2000 was running really bad at the end of last summer. Misfire on all cylinders, burning oil, etc, I really need someone or a reputable shop that knows the S inside out who I can trust to diagnose the problem and get the car back in tip top shape.

Also, once I can get that going I want to install a supercharger, so if it was someone or someplace that could do it all, even better.

I searched for recommended shops but last post seems to be from 08 so I want to see if there's any new shops to consider as well.

Thanks, I really want to do this asap so the car can be ready for spring.

I would recommend Speedstar in Markham. They work on a ton of S2000's and also installed my Supercharger before I bought the car.

Check the stickied thread at the top for a few recommendations. While I'm a fan of Speedstar myself, it's always worth doing your own due diligence.

Yeah, I've had some work at Speedstar done in the past but I found them a bit on the pricey side... but more than that they are quite a distance from where I am in Mississauga. It's always a pain to get someone to go with me to Speedstar to drop off the car and pick it up.

I'll check the stickied thread, I must have missed that.

Lol. That's nothing. It's 3 hours for me to get to Speedstar - each way!

But this year will be a low key travel year

You just mean that you won't tell your wife about it right ?

I'm always a fan of APH (Advance Power House) for any work like this. They can do the tuning on your car as well. I believe I posted about it in the recommended shops thread.

APH is very good.. Brian knows s2000's inside and out. He is very meticulous and takes a lot of care with his work. The shop looks a little bit on the rugged side, but don't let that deter you.

I can also vouch for Speedstar. They've done a lot of extensive work on my car, and the quality has been top notch. They built me a diff with an LSD and gears. It turned out as good or better than oem.

Both are different, but both are reputable. Go with your gut. Can't go wrong either one.

I can get my tech Lee (s2kt3) to do it. If he isn't too busy installing a V10 in this S2000
