Default Anyone with a Turbo'd S2k in the area?

Hi everyone. Looking at who has gone turbo in the area. What shop did you have do the work and what set-up are you running. I am thinking of going with Turbo Technologies in Tacoma. I have my flywheel and clutch ordered to be installed within the next couple weeks. I plan on breaking that in then getting started mid April. Curious if anyone else has gone this route in the area and what your experiences were and with whome.


Thanks
Chris

I don't have experience with turbo on an S2000, but do have a lot of experience with turboing Hondas. If I were you, I would research a good turbo kit that has been proven on the forum and either install it yourself or have someone local install it for you.

Turbo Technology would have to custom fabricate a manifold/downpipe and piping and this is going to cost a lot of money and it wouldn't have been tested previously.

I have looked at some of the kits out there and may get the manifold but I have other ideas for what I want for the piping. I may be going in a different way possibly with the intercooler (maybe) and I am for sure going a different way with the piping direction. Turbo Tech mainly does domestics but have done two very nice Integra R's through there shop. Previous vehicle I did was at a reasonable cost with the custom piping I went with versus going pre-fab. If you guys have any recommendations of other shops by all means speak up already. :-)

Anyone whats up with the silence? You are referencing to? Help me out here. It has been a very long day and my brain has gone fazizzle.

"RT" on the board might have an Ultimate Racing turbo kit for sale. He has had it in sitting in his living room for almost a year...........It has never been installed or out of the box for that matter.

Here is a link their page: Ultimate Racing Turbo Kit - S2000

PM "RT"..........It might be worth it.
