FINALLY- Lil' Red Goes Turbo!
Hello all, I've accumulated the majority of parts to boost my s2000. The car is a 2001 NFR with stock internals, and it just rolled over 99,000 miles. I've owned this car for four years and ever since I bought it I've dreamed of turbocharging it. I've been trolling the forced induction threads of s2ki for a long time and have learned quite a bit from all of you gentleman I'd changed my mind several times on what I was actually going to do to the car; from a stage 1 Kings or Pfab kit for a mild street build all the way up to a Fullblown T4 twinscroll monster. I recently came across a great deal on a "used" Ptuning kit that a guy local to me had purchased but never got to install-so I jumped on it. Its the entire kit with the new SPAL fan relay, gt30r turbo, vacuum block, and rerouted wastegate tube (which I probably won't be using). I've also gathered an Aeromotive 340lph fuel pump, and ID1000 injectors (thanks Real Street, I purchased from your eBay posting). I've also ordered the 3" adapter pipe to be able to connect the Ptuning vband downpipe to my Ark N2 exhaust (thanks to Mike at Ptuning). I've arranged for the car to be tuned by Jason or wadzii as he's known here. This guy is super helpful and knowledgeable, I recommend anyone needing dyno tuning or any other performance work for your Honda in the North Carolina area to give him a call. Construction will begin in a couple of weeks, and I'll be sure to take plenty of photos along the way. Alright, enough of my long winded ass onto the

PTuning is a nice kit.....you're gonna love it. Trust me!!! I also owned my S for about 4 years before going FI. And my intentions were always to go FI as soon as I bought the car. I suggest a turbo blanket and steel braided coolant lines to and from the turbo. If you have any questions I'll be glad to help. Good luck and enjoy the install process.

Shooting for 400's on pump 93 for now. Would like to go with e85 down the road as it becomes more readily available and consistant. There is only one station with e85 within an hour's drive from me and its a rinky dink little place, so I'm a little worried about the quality. I'll be taking care of the install myself with the help of a couple buddies. I already have an ACT HD clutch installed to hold the extra power (hopefully) it has about 10-15k miles on it now. Will be installing the upgraded oiljets (pre 02 engine) and I MAY go with Supertech dual springs and retainers after talking to Jason. I've already ordered Ap2 retainers, so I gotta make up my mind about that.
