I used to see him all the time in front of emory. And it was turboed. Dont know what kinda power he was making or anything. Are there alot of places to find parts for your car or is it more of one off stuff?
    There are quite a few off the shelf parts, but once you make some good power and have to dive into the transmission and such you start having to spend the $$$ for some custom parts to withstand the abuse that gets thrown at them. There are so few big power S2k's that there wouldn't be a big enough market to produce a lot of different high-hp capable drivetrain parts.
    Who knows?

    Yeah I dont know a whole lot about the S2k's. But there are alot of cars like that where very few people mod them out so the parts are retarded expensive. And most things for high power are 1 off. Thats sux, should have bought an EVO or an STI.

    Yeah but v8's are so played out these days. You could go to the track and find V8's galore b/c everyone has them. Its what the corvette has turned into aswell. I used to think it was a bad ass car, but it seems like everyone has one!

    you would be surprised at how many ppl dont have a corvette. compare 4-cyl civics to corvettes. civics are played out.

    but it really has nothing to do with played out or not. it has more to do with power. there is no replacement for discplacement. v8 is just a better platform for racing. this s2000 will be my last 4-cyl car that i mod. its just too much money and headache.

    yeah this will probably be my last 4 cylinder too. I would like my next car to be an RS6. Now thats a motor. 4.2L twin-turbo. All wheel drive. And in a big luxury car. NIIICCCEEE!

    Your not going to go for a mustang are you?? I may do the old school thing.

    I can tell you from personal experience that an STi is definitely NOT a cheap alternative. lol

    good luck w/ the new car. Should get into the 7's without any problem w/ that turbo. The 94's put out a ton of power.

    I'm bout to head out to seloc meet in buckhead. Someone call me if anything else is going on tonight.

    Thanks Clark. We are keeping everything in this car. Full weight should be 3800lbs, so I don't think 7's are in its future. As long as i can run mid 8's I will be happy. I will get up with you when the car is up and ready and hopefully we can hit the track together again.
