Saw and read that.
Seems a bit mad putting a SC AND a Turbo on there!

He might have balls but he's got a small yank brain! There is much better ways of improving the S. Either method of FI would have been ok but both is just stupid. It's not an S2000 in my eyes any more.

Twin-charging is a good solution, but usually it's a roots blower to give the low down grunt and then a bigger turbo to spool up late and give massive power.

I have no idea how a small turbo and then a centrifugal blower would work.

Very strange.

Yes, it will be interesting to see a dyno plot if one ever appears.

IMOHO EITHER a small turbo OR a centrifugal is the best way to go for the s. low down poke but no lag or progressive ramp up to silly power

eer, thanks, I'd got that!



I was thinking what the coloquial name would be, rather than Twin Turbo

Whatever it's called I am curious as to how this set-up is working, heat wise. Surely feeding turbo air to the SC it will be under pressure and so heated? Testing so far has been at a few K but how will the temperatures go after VTEC? I wonder if his intercooler is pressurised/higher performance? The stuff in his sig includs oil cooling, but nothing about beefing up the main cooling system, thermostat etc
