That's a fact.
It needs about a 100 more naturally aspirated horsepower

It lacks hp and torque. I will never race anyone in a straight road with my 'S' bc of that!

Quote: Thanks man. And no worries, this current GPW will follow the exact path my last Laguna did. Pretty much a simple build with some quality parts. And of course, no forced induction.

Forced induction has no place on an S2000.
mines getting a full race kit next year sometime

but i have a hardparker s2000. so its k

That is a opinion.

I've had 4 n/a s2000s before the current one I have (440whp on pump); and yah they are extreme fun with a few bolt ons; but you can't hate on one that will run a 10 sec 1/4 mile and still fuck up a road course with proper tires and a boost controller. I'd run circles around a stock s2000 on a road course/auto-x course.

There will always be purists, I call those guys pansies.

Top down + reliable, running car = even better

I have never seen a boosted S2000 not have at least one issue. Never. And I've been doing this S2000 thing for 8 years, and have seen 100s of builds.

I do appreciate a well built boosted S2000 though, but most of those cars are executed perfectly with the SoS kit.
