go out and get a set of low compression piston. spend the money and get good computer system. car will last for long time. if you don't want to spend the money on those piston, go with a supercharger application!

Re: Going to build custom turbo... (oneloudcivic)
Yeah well this kid has a better car than a civic. Anyways...3 of my friends build turbo set ups all the time. They recommended I lower the compression and I wanted to see what S2000 owners thought would be a good way to do this. This is a message board right? Questions are allowed here...or at least I thought. My friends told me that they wouldn't charge me for building the manifold or any of the pipe bends...I'd just need to buy the pipe. I'm going with stainless steel and probably 2 1/2-3" downpipe. They said I wouldn't have to rebuild the bottom end since I told them it's a daily driver and I'd only be running 5-7 lbs of boost. They said I needed larger injectors also. Anybody have suggestions for injectors?

Re: Going to build custom turbo... (oneloudcivic)
You call me the moron...however it is YOUR screen name that says Civic. An assumption can be incorrect. Do you have a turbo S2000? I'm not trying to be smart or anything, I would just like advice...

the size of the injectors you're going to get are going to vary on how much power you want to push out... main thing.. just make sure you get it tuned properly... but like i said in my first post....
do the job right.. and spend the money...the first time around.. otherwise you'll be spending a lot more money in the long run with repairs and engine rebuilds.

Re: Going to build custom turbo... (GroovyNeilNeil)
if u are going to run low boost, u "dont have to" lower ur compression. just make sure u use a good engine management system.
if u really want to lower ur compression, i would call cometic and look into a custom headgasket.
