apexi and hks do not make turbo kits for the s2000.

greddy has a turbo kit for the s2000, but im not sure if its available to the public yet. no one has it on a sreet car to my knowledge, so im not sure if its worth it or not.

look into linlinepro for their turbo kit. also check out lovefab and full race.

The greddy kit is coming along, still under testing. Don't ask me how I know, but in a couple of weeks there should be plenty of pics and info on the net. trust me.

i assume the greddy kit will be focused mostly on street legal and emissions garbage.

Just make sure your 100% about doing the kit. and when you do start the conversion, don't cut any corners, cuz they will bite you in the *** later. Do it right the first time. and Good luck

if you want boost so bad, just get the comptech kit... its pretty resonable and reliable

Full race is the only thing i would trust, they are legit engineered parts, like their black civic that makes like 900WHP and 859ft lb of torque. for a kid straight outta college, he knows what hes doing. plus i heard their parts are extremely durable and reliable.

Theres a thread about their turbo kit somewhere around here, look around.

lol 900 whp and 859ft. lb??? I think your facts are a little off. none the less full-race is top notch. i ran their top mount manifold on my integra and their 4 inch downpipe. also ran their charge pipes. inline pro's kit is very strong too, and matt keller has the whp record for a b series motor with 926whp, using thier log style manifold, not an equal lenght tubular.

If your getting a new full-race kit http://www.full-race.com/catal...26b7d

Full-race is very reliable and very efficient. Best around IMO. I have met quite a few of the guys there and they are good guys that are knowledgable of what they are doing.

what stage would you all recomend to bolt on my motor. the internals and gaskets are all stock as well as the head. Stage 4 catches my eyes but im sure my motor wouldnt handle it, would 3 work with out damaging my stock stuff?

thanks

HonData currently only has products for 06+ S2k's, with nothing for boosted applications. Go with AEM, Motec, or HKS.

As far as motor prep, it depends on your power goals.

HKS FTW! E V E R Y T H I N G

Garbage unless you're tuning just bolt ons. You need full engine management.
