Default turbo thoughts

thanks for responding so quickly with my 1st post, you know who you are. But anyways, I wanted to know which turbo kit is the best, in terms of potential for the s2k. Or should I go with one of the infamous superchargers?

there is no best turbo kit out there..... cause if you want the best you'll end up moddifying the turbo kit later down the road...

however... the best put together kit in my opinion is the lovefab

InlinePro offers a turbo kit for the s2000. In april we ran our s2000 at the Nopi MIR event and got an 11.55 @121mph. Fastest S2000 on street tires.

theirs too much "best turbo kit" talk going on, on this site...

the best kit is the kit that fits your needs and goals...each person has different requirments.

figure out what you want, set some goals and then pick the kit that will get you the results you want

Sorry Matt. You guys do not have the fastest s2k on street tires. I ran a 11.3 @ 126 on stock S02s. I have the fastest s2k in the USA,for now .Yes it was with InlinePros turbo kit. I was on 24lbs and c16 with AEM EMS.

So, for the person that wants a turbo kit. The Inline Kit looks damn good. There Mani is cast and much stronger then the fabed ones. If you want to drive your car on the street alot I think Inlines Mani will hold up much better for a DD turbo car

Thats cool, but the important thing is that you have the InlinePro turbo kit.
Congrats on the awesome number. When and where did you run that?

When I ran the 11.55 @129mph, the S2000 was bone stock with the turbo kit and a GReddy e-manage, no suspension or engine upgrades, with 100 octane gas, and the tires that came on the car from the dealer. Keep in mind I do not own this car and this was my second pass in the car ever.

custom is better than any kit... none of those kits will get you to the 900hp you're wanting.

i highly doubt an s2000 motor is going to be able to hit 900hp with out boosting the crap out of it...

I was at MIR. It was during ImSTAR. I think I could have done better, I couldnt get past a 1.9 60ft and the waste gate was leaking exhaust gas so the car would die on the top end. I also couldnt go past 24lbs, I need tighter springs in the W/G

No matter, I dont understand why people hate on the cast mani. I know there will be faster s2ks soon but Inline has the 3 fastest s2k. You have mine @ 11.3, you @ 11.5 and the 2.5-matt @ 13.0 all motor
