Holy shit we did the same exact thing lol.

And I also do the same exact thing whilst driving ...Nothing like owning an s2000 to make you rage at how slow ppl go around turns.

Shit, 182 pages! I'm late to the party!

Thanks, I know silver can be kind of blah sometimes, but I really like how it looks on this car.

Thanks Dave. Knock on wood, I haven't had any issues since the new fuel pump and SOS wiring kit for it. Sometimes I think about going down there for that, but I'm kind of leery about leaving my car unattended with the top down and all.

Lmao, when I first saw the kit I think I liked it the most because of how similar it looked to a turbocharger. Honestly, I never knew anything centrifugal superchargers to begin with and how they looked. I thought all superchargers looked like big hunks of metal with a hug belt spinning the pulley on the end of it.

I wish I could supercharge my S .. guess I could always get one of these:

Lmao, thanks guys! The S definitely is a fun car to drive N/A, but boosted it's a whole new level of fun. Right now she sits at 462hp/281tq.

Chip, I don't want the car back. Title already changed hands once!
That said, I'd love to be able to snap my fingers and have that kinda power in the car, it looks like an absolute blast to drive now that I re-watch the vids.

PS...didn't I tell you this was more active than S2KI!

Wow, that sounds and looks amazing. Must be a complete blast to drive. Effortlessly picks up speed like nothing! Props to your build taste.

I need to figure out how big of a PO I may potentially need to run by the wife.

Sam. You nearly died at the cost of wheels.
Move along, trust me. He's got almost enough into the kit to buy a small 3rd World Country.

Plain and simple, I can afford the kit ... I can't afford to finish the build.

And since the S is a daily driver, it makes it impossible to justify

He's selling it all wrong then. He's gotta put it in the frame of "but this will make our relationship stronger, hunny"

and

"If you commit to this supercharger build, it makes it easier for me to commit to marriage"

and

"when you show me how much you care about the stuff I'm passionate about, it makes me feel like the luckiest man on the planet and it makes me love you even more"


aaaaand next time you see Tyler, he'll be driving a Veyron

It's fully built. Brakes, suspension, chassis bracing, supercharged, full exhaust, tuning, upsized cooling, you name it. Literally nothing has been left untouched. And save for the wheels, you'd think it was stock.

I have a Cosworth supercharger on the 2.0L. I wanted to drop in the 2.5L this year and get it retuned, but Wifey said not until next year now, due to a bunch of crap coming up
