I have a Tial 44, has been mounted with car idling but never seen boost. 13lb spring if I remember. $300 and I'll ship it tomorrow. http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs020.snc1/4242_1154340864803_1416120071_400177_443365_n.jpg http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs020.snc1/4242_1154340784801_1416120071_400176_7025360_n.jpg

I do what I do to pay for my current education, so that my answer to your question will someday be "because I love doing what I do".

What's up Ricky?

Hello

Clean car bump.

My macbook starts up from dead start to idle in 20 seconds.

I'm not going to get into a mac vs. pc argument so I'll refrain from posing anymore. Those whom use macs, cheers.

What is it based off? Never, in my 5 years of owning macs have I ever had even a minor problem with an operating system. The simplicity and capabilities of OS X Leopard are incredible.

Macs come preloaded with boot camp now, so you just throw in a windows operating system cd and go. It's very simple. I just hate having to format 30gigs of my hd for an operating system just to run 1 program on. I also run parallels so I can be running both operating systems at the same time in different windows. IMO nothing compares to OS X Leopard.

I just installed vista on my macbook as I need a windows operating system so I can run my AEM tuning software. I've never been so lost and confused before (being a mac user for many years doesn't help). A family member had a vista basic CD sitting around so I just used it. It sucks having a 2nd operating system on a computer just for tuning. Space Ghost, you'll be very happy with a mac.

Plates will remain. BOV flange welded on, bracing system for turbo on (bracket doubles for new oil filter location), dump tube done, test pipe in progress.

Thanks for all the kind words guys!

It's not going to be a dyno queen. I'll be autocrossing/road racing for much of this summer. Many of the high number S2K guys are competitive. If I were to build this thing N/A I would have already spent more than I have on my current setup to reach a power level not even close to what my setup will be making. I just couldn't justify spending an arm and a leg for very minimal gains when I can spend the same or a less amount of money for a setup with outstanding gains. Sure a n/a tuned S2K is great fun, but a boosted high hp S2k for the same price is going to be a hell of a lot more fun. As you said, to each their own. :thumbup:

I've yet to see a F20C or F22C break over 325whp n/a. I've seen quite a few in the 600's and a select few in the 700's turbocharged. n/a tuning on this engine is very expensive as well. My total build cost INCLUDING the car is ~$26,000 +-$1000. In the future I may upgrade the valvetrain and string this pig out to 9500rpm+.

I posted earlier, my goal for now is 450hp/300tq daily driven for now. More will be made for special occasions. With a GT3076R (great turbo for this car) I would be near out of the efficiency range with just a little more power, with the GT3582R I will be within the efficiency range, still have much potential and have a harder hitting top end as this turbo moves much more air. It should be spooled up ~4500rpm and redline is 9000rpm. This is a top end performing car and I suppose using the GT35R keeps that "trait". Anywho, it will be much better than the Vortech I used to have that didn't reach full boost until redline.

I have a few (not very good). http://photos-071.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-sf2p/v113/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_4231_7062.jpg http://photos-h.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v204/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_6695_9002.jpg http://photos-g.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v195/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_6854_9455.jpg Here's the old setup: http://photos-071.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-sf2p/v82/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_3242_3048.jpg http://photos-071.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-sf2p/v82/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_3244_3643.jpg

I plan to daily drive it ~14psi which should yield ~450hp/300tq. I'll up the boost for "special" occasions.

Greetings from up north, thought I'd stop in and share a few pics of my junk as I finish it up. I may be in your neck of the woods soon for some tuning from SlowMotion. Enjoy! http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v234/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_7794_7305.jpg http://photos-e.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v234/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_7796_8043.jpg http://photos-f.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v234/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_7797_8401.jpg http://photos-a.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v234/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_7800_9477.jpg http://photos-071.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-sf2p/v116/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_3902_6987.jpg http://photos-071.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-sf2p/v116/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_3909_9435.jpg Junk on it +- a few things: ›› Garrett GT3582R ›› Custom Lovefab GT1 tubular manifold ›› AEM 1052 EMS ›› InlinePro 3mm head gasket (9:1 compression) ›› Lovefab 4" down pipe ›› 3" test pipe ›› Megan 3" single catback ›› Precision 600 intercooler ›› ARP head studs ›› Comptech reinforced differential with Puddymod solid steel sleeve ›› Exedy hyper single 6 puck clutch ›› Apexi AVC-R boost controller ›› Tial 44mm wastegate ›› Apex'i race blow off valve ›› Science of Speed 70mm throttle body ›› Walbro 255 fuel pump ›› AEM fuel pressure regulator ›› Seimens 875cc injectors ›› Krank vents ›› Buddy club SECU turbo timer ›› AEM UEGO wideband ›› AEM tru boost ›› AEM Oil press ›› AEM 3.5 bar map sensor ›› InlinePro oil filter relocation ›› Auto meter fuel rail mounted fuel pressure gauge ›› Anodized blue powdercoated valve cover ›› Anodized blue fuel rail cover ›› Optima yellowtop battery ›› ARC gradiation spark plug cover ›› Toyo proxes T1R ›› C-wings carbon fiber trunk ›› Updated oil squirter banjo bolts ›› Clear sidemarkers/diffusers ›› Pioneer head unit/iPod interface/Modifry's DCI ›› Sony speakers

The S2000 does NOT use the K20. MY00-03 have the F20C MY04+ have the F22C

Just need to throw insurance back on it and I'll be on my way to get the last few things fabricated.

Please stop providing misinformation.

It drives around N/A now. Still need a few minor things fabbed. (charge plumbing, down pipe flange, dump, bracing system, etc. It's getting very close. http://photos-a.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v185/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_6688_517.jpg http://photos-h.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v204/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_6695_9002.jpg http://photos-g.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v195/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_6846_843.jpg http://photos-g.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v195/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_6854_9455.jpg http://photos-a.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v195/80/53/1416120071/n1416120071_6848_1481.jpg

Doubt that was me.

Tonight I'll be cooking sirloin, turkey, chicken, meatloaf, stuffing, mashed potatoes, redskin potatoes, steamed vegetables, green beans, corn, spinach, macaroni and cheese, salads, cinnamon apples, sweet potatoes, coleslaw, soup, sandwiches, cornbread, cookies, etc. I'm a cook and I have to work tonight.
