I want to boost my car extremely bad. I do not know anything. I only want 300 whp, so i don't need the best kit, i just want a reliable set up.

I need to know what some good/affordable shit there is for the s2000. I am going to post up some kits on ebay (not complete ones) and need to know which ones are shitty and which ones would be decent for my goal. I know i sound like an idiot but i figure this is the only way to figure it out.

kit 1

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GODSPEED ... 0085150152

Kit 2

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HONDA-S2 ... 0228777286

Kit 3

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Greddy-T ... 0251521757

And then Kit 4 (i know it is shitty, but who has experience with it?)

Just get the inline pro kit, aem fic, some injectors and fuel pump.
You should be able to do that all for about 4400.


The kits you posted do not seem all that good.

piece your kit together, you get a better quality kit for the same price. i would go with a GT series turbo, on a good manifold. (i like ramhorn styles), a good wastegate, a BOV, and an intercooler of appropriate size. then you have your fuel upgrades, colder spark plugs, larger injectors (i think 440s would suit your goals nicely), upgraded fuelpump to make sure you get enough fuel (the walbro one would be appropriate i think) and lastly AND most importantly the engine management, I would suggest Kpro or AEMEMS. see which suits you better, I think papa made a comparison thread a while back. I probably missed something, but thats most of it I think. Oh and gauges i forgot, u want one for boost, AFR, water temp, oil pressure. hmm and i forgot the stuff u need for tuning like wideband and electronic boost controller (for upping PSI above waste gate settings).

Fuck all that, go to the junkyard, pull a turbo off a volvo or a saab, buy a cheap ebay mani, and some shitty knock off boost controller, dsm side mount intercooler from the junkyard also. heres how you tune, kinda set the controller in the middle, do a pull, if its not fast enough turn it up more :drunk: :drunk: :drunk: :drunk:
