How many sec(s) are you expecting to drop with the s/c?

You do the math. Car weighs 3200 lbs. I dynoed my car stock and had 168 rwhp (215 flywheel). Now my car has 270rwhp (330 flywheel) By the middle of next month I will be over 350 rwhp (427 flywheel)

Don't Comptech Supercharged S2000's make about 290 at the wheels?

350hp is a lot, but I still don't think it's enough to beat an S2000 with supercharger, and a few basic bolt ons. IS300 for one is an automatic, has bad gear ratios, and weighs about 400lbs more. It would be close, but I would still give it to the S2000.

Hopefully someone with a well driven S/C'ed S here on this board can prove my theory correct.

Or your friend in the S2k was just a bad driver, or your IS300 is modded.
