Default thinking about forced induction?

I know a few of you out there are thinking about it. If the money is there and you'd like to venture into forced induction and be the first (I dont believe there is another at the moment) SC'ed S2000 in Austin - well... let me know - I'm willing to give a local a deal. However, you must have the dollars, and only serious inquiries. I'm not giving out quotes.

Also, willing to help out as much as possible on the installation.

Thanks!

I've been talking about this for months...and I have the money and a car in top condition. However, I'm still not sold that it's smart on this car, and will last for what I have been doing with the car.

And, my requirement is that it be intercooled... and gthe sole kit ont he market isn't - yet. And, the Vortech kit - with intercooler standard - still hasn't shown up...

So, I'm interested... but too cautious to jump into it as it exists now...

Yea, I just wouldn't think it would be a good idea. The Subie 2.5RS is the same way, as it as high compression. People turbo them, but require some pretty serious work to the engine to make them day-to-day drivable.

sent you a PM Jeff.

And WRXBoy - lots of people already do SC's on S2000's, and they track them as well. Its certainly not anything new - but I don't know of anyone in Austin with one so that is why I'm offering a special deal to an individual if they want one. Many miles have been put on SC'ed cars such as 1RandyC's car which has by far the most miles on any other S2000 I'm sure! (he has a helluva commute every day and drives his S everywhere)
