I am based in the Wentworth area of Surrey and i'm looking at modifying my S2000. Any one any ideas of what i can do and where i can go for engine mods ?

Dont us a super chip, ive heard bad things!

I phoned them , and they will take your car in as a test car and you could be inthe initial superchipped s2000, but this means they will mess around with the ecu a few times, could they do damage, I dont know but i wouldnt take the risk

Cams - Piper, or Kent, to Vtec cams, when i phoned them the diodnt have a clue what an s2000 was, but said "said in the cams and we will reprofil them"..yeah right, I dont think they even knew the current type/profile or the S2000 cam!

TDI-PLC is a company who do all the HKS/Mugen, but they seem to be expensive, and make a big deal of making 10bhp with a Mugen exhaust and Header, Not my type of power gain! But they do do a HKS Supercharger, which only makes 30bhp, maybe its for the Japan version (11.9 compression ration)

you could import the Comptech SC, but Im going to wait until all the problems are ironed out.

Im looking for suspension and Wheels at moment if anyone has seen any good 17/18inch??

Thanks Paul

I'll look into the wheels.
Its hard finding wheels which match the car better than stock. Honda did a good job there(IMO)
