Opinions on the next step in performance mods
I have had my vortech supercharged s2k for about 2 months now and I am striving for more power. The question is what do I get next? I have about 8k to spend. I have thought about swapping the supercharger for a turbo or maybe stick with the supercharger, larger boost pulley, larger injectors, some internal work, and AEM EMS.
As far as the turbo goes, I would either have a shop configure a costom setup or go with the Elda Enginering kit once it comes out.
My other choice being internals, pulley, ems, and injectors, I don't know what to get. What size injectors, what internal pieces, and what size pulley are all questions that I need answers to. Does anyone have a setup similar to this?
I would just like some comments and input on these or other routes to go.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

BTW: My current engine mods are, vortech supercharger, fidanza lightweight flywheel, act 6 puck clutch, dc sports stainless headers, hks hi power stainless exhaust, and eibach pro spring kit.

well with 8g's you can do a lot.... this is what i would do.....
1. trade out your dc sports header for a toda header..
2. get an aem ems and get it tuned
3. bigger pully and larger injectors as you said..
4. call up inline pro... http://www.inlinepro.com and get their 2.5L stroker kit...
or you can..
1. ditch the supercharger and get a turbo.. (inline pro turbo)
2. aem ems and tuned...
3. larger injectors..
4. give me your supercharger..
hahahahahahahha..

Thanks for the replies! As you can see you guys have mixed opinions just as I do. I just want the most power I can get without nitrous. I am trying to get as close as possible to 400whp. What are some est. numbers that I could get on:
Keep the Vortech
-TODA billet camshafts (what sizes?)
-TODA cam gears
-TODA forged pistons
-TODA valve springs
-Hondata Heatshield Intake Manifold Gaskets
-RC Injectors (what would be a proper size for my goal?)
-AEM EMS
-Spearco Radiator
-a few other small misc. parts
-maybe some head work
-smaller pulley
Or ditch that **** and get a turbo set up:
I am thinking about maybe getting a turbo kit form a company (who has the best one?) and getting some of the internal parts.
Decisions...i hate them.

Didn't you just ask this question at s2ki.com? What's the deal? Did you not like the informative answers most people gave you there?
Most of the information you are relaying in your post is stuff you just learned from the other board. Keep it real and don't fake it. If you are really intersted in learning, take the honest approach.
Uhh and why does your profile say you are 15???

Why do you want more power? The S2k is stock form is good enough. If you want to spend 8gs I would work on the suspension aspects and tweak it that way and do some headwork and upgrade your brakes.
I don't think there is any application at all. The kid's info says he's 15 and he posted the same thing on s2ki.com. I'm pretty sure he's just a troll who is in fantasy land.
