Re: 483whp on 7psi stock block s2k

What's interesting about the dyno is that it looks a lot like a centrifugal SC kit because of the torque curve. I would bet that lowering the VTEC crossover and running a boost controller could...

Re: How noisy are the s2000 on highways?

The S2000 is loud enough on the highway that when I used to take 1+ hr long trips, I would wear earplugs. Since that reduced the amount of overall noise including road noise, it also allowed me to...

I'm sure the custom intake and headwork help, but those numbers do seem a bit high. ...

Re: custom exhaust questions got a drone from 3-4K rpm

Honda used a Helmholtz resonator on the S2000 to deaden drone. It's just a short piece of capped pipe welded perpendicular to the exhaust. You could try that. I'm not sure how long or what...

Re: LS2 S2K spray

Re: S2000 Test pipe 3 hole flange

The S2000 uses an unequal 3 bolt setup. Standard 3 bolts won't work. I got one from Asura, but I also bought an exhaust from him.

Re: GT35R or GT4088R? I searched. (vti2)

I was attempting to buy one with a T4 exhaust. They steered me to the PT6776RLE instead (similar turbo, but with a P trim instead of the GT37 turbine wheel).
