The rumours were true. There is a Vortech supercharged S2000 on this island.
I was on H-1 getting off of the Kapiolani exit when I spotted a sebring silver S2000 2 cars ahead of me. There was still 2 lanes on the exit, so I juiced it around the car in front of me and tucked in behind the S2 and noticed that his exhaust was of an aftermarket brand that I didn't recognize. Also, he had California plates. I got alongside of him after the exit and asked him what kind of exhaust he had. He said Apex'i. I was thinking "what?! does this mean he has a turbo?". Just then, he downshifted and throttled briefly and I could hear the whine of a blown engine.
We pulled over at McCully shopping center to talk, and lo and behold, there was the supercharger. Luckily, I had just gotten a digital camera the day before and had it handy. The owner's name is James, and he's interested in coming out and meeting everyone. Nice guy, and he even offered to let me drive his car the next time we had more time.
Ryan, I think you should bring your STi and we should have a clash of the titans.
