Default The Second Coming

The time has come, and I am back with a new project.

I picked up my 2007 Laguna Blue Pearl S2000 back in May of 2013 with 32K on it, and began plans to build a streetable track car right away.

Currently the car is built for GridLife Track Battle Street Mod rules, and is very competitive. I have a few podiums dating back to August of 2016 when I added the supercharger. Hopefully more will follow with the addition of 285/30/18 tires and a few additional modifications.

You ought to hit up Gernby for his Gernpipe as the exhaust, and read his testing of headers, as the Hytech is expensive with sub par gains.

Thanks for the heads up. I have always had good luck with Hytech in the B and K series world, so I'll have to look into it. I had a Toda header on my last car that gave great midrange and a few up top (after I already had the Amuse R1000 on).

Man, I was reading through your list of things to order thinking to myself, "Needs more boost!!!" till I got to the last line. What path are you looking into, turbo or SC?

What engine mounts are you considering?
