    Default s2000 vs. evo VIII first run with the turbo

    I caught an evo slipping on 20 east Monday afternoon. Didn't get a close up just a younger white guy. We went at it from about 50-110. He never had a chance. Just got tuned for 12psi at mainstream last Tuesday hit the 330hp and 220tq mark. He must have thought I was stock, it wouldn't have ended the way it did Iif I were.

    Nah I'm straight. I've owned it since 2002 and just moved down. There aren't that many turbo s2ks in the area. I'm only running 12 psi for now. Chanp Coupe are you on s2katlanta or s2ki??

    Chadbee it was all white.

    What area were u around when this happened? Just curious cause I ran a turbo s2000 the other day on hwy 138. The guy wouldn't race me down low like off the line, but he would want to race 40 on up. We got a good run in and he started before me, I started to pull him back and as soon as I guess he realized it, he slammed on his brakes.

    Was it one of these..........



    this one......... which is mine, and I'm not a white guy, I'm hispanic/Columbian.....


    or this one........ Mike's car, which is a white guy, but I asked hime about it and he said he hasn't raced any s2000s.

    Yea thats what it looked like. And yes I can't run from a dig I have a stock clutch and diff. I hit the brakes at 110 because I don't know the area very well and we came up to a red light and after that the road went down to one lane. I was just tuned for 12 psi and am only putting 330 to the ground. Gimme a month to get the new clutch and get retuned for 18-20 psi and we can have some runs from a dig and from a roll. I am very new to the state. Obviously not the fastest car out there but I like to have a good time and nice adrenaline rush.

    I am sure it was me. Top was up silver s2k with a precision 600fmic. Single exhaust out the passenger side. Couldn't tell the nationality of the other guy really but he definetly wasn't black.

    It was a fun little run, as I don't get to many chances to play around with anyone out here in Athens. The roads over here are all curvy and up or down hill. No real straights anywhere.

    Which Justin??? My boy with the MY2000 and lovefab setup. He is only tuned at 7psi and at 350 hp right now. We are supposed to be going to see ed senpf to get retuned. Unless there is another Justin with a turbo S around here. I thought we were the only 2. I am Justen with an "e" though.
