Default Damaged S2000 Dropped Off At My Job Today

I Work At Lindell Collision Repair Center In Tampa And We Recieve S2000s all the time but this one was different.
The Exhaust is neuspeed, which im not sure was his best purchase based on dyno results ive heard. However he has a vortech supercharger. Does this particular charger net gains worth the price of the buying it? Also i noticed that he has a spark plug welded into the end of the exhaust piping, right before the muffler. however the plug does not have a wire running to it. Any ideas on why that would be there? Does it come like that on the neuspeed exhaust? . BTW: dude cant drive his car for shizz.... he seems to already have bondo work done plus he broke his right rear brake rotor in half! damn thats thick steel!

anyways sorry for the non-info post but i just had to find out.

Seem like a ricer trying to ignite his exhaust fumes. I'm sure he would eventually hook up the spark plug. They claim 100+ horsepower to the crank which if check modification history to the S2000 is worth it considering that there hasn't been any modification with better power to price ratio

Someone else on here snapped a rotor under pretty normal conditions. I wonder if there's a defect...

Maybe that "spark plug" was actually an 02 sensor? Just a thought.

Hot.

just an idea but on some headers there is an extra o2 bung that is not needed. So instead of having a hole in your exhaust and not putting an expensive 02 sensor in there and not using it, some people will put a spark plug in place of the spare 02 sensor hole. the spaek plug it is the same size as an o2 sensor
