What are the s2000 performance bottlenecks? If we start modifying it (turbo / supercharger) for over 500 hp? Is the differential adequate? Transmission? Axles?

 

the diff is definitely a weak spot

only if you launch just gotta be careful

 

At 500whp anything can go even with hard shifting. Ive heard of people s/c'd breaking diffs on hard shifts.

Basically nothings going to last long at 500whp with a car designed for 200whp. You have to replace and strengthen every moving part to be sure nothing fails.

 

use the money to make 500whp,

into some sick *** handles

 

how do you make 500 bhp out of a 2-liter engine? correct me if i'm wrong but i dont think its even possible.

 

Not that impossible, there are a couple people here running 500+hp.

 

those couple of cars are daily drivers or race cars? thats nice :D

 

I don't know about daily-driven, but they're at least streetable.

 

one member on this board is running 600+whp daily driven

 

Not impossible at all...i wouldnt want to drive it daily though. Eeek.

daily driving really depends on the tuning
