Who has the fastest S2000 in Houston?
I want to play. Been out of the street scene for nearly 6 months now because of defer judication on traffic citations. Anyone wants to play?

My car was down for 4 months, and just recently hit the street again. I'm down a few HP right now from when we ran before. I've got some small upgrades coming in a month or so...might be fun to run again when I do.

Hey Wes, what's going on with your car now. Last I heard, you were putting a standalone computer on your car or something. Did that help? Why is it running alittle slower than before? Good to hear from you...you're still alive 
I have been itching to take my car out (been sitting in the garage for 6 months) from reading all the races here. Right now, I think I am alittle parinoid (sp) from recent cop pull-overs. Been thrown in jail and many citations later, that does scare me a little.
Wes, I assume you have the fastest S2000 in H-town which is really cool. I read on the message board, some people are turbocharging their S2000s. What do you think about that? Are they having a better result than your setup? I know turbocharging a S2000 is more complicated than supercharging, but having a turbo will give it more topend power. More power requires more accurate tuning. How the S2000 reacts to turbocharging is very interesting because the S2000 from the factory is very well tune and running close to max power. Do you think you will go that route on your car?
I hope to meet up with you again sometime when your car is done. Have fun and be safe.

As for my car, it's just a really long story...but the crux is that the car needed a new motor. There is no AEM EMS on the car, and no V-AFC...so that's where I'm down some HP.
The turbo cars are running very well. Boost will make any car run better.
The stock Speedcraft kit runs about 6 PSI...but it hits 6PSI much earlier than the SC kit. It's good for 0.5-1.0 second quicker in the 1320. I'll keep an eye out for you when I'm running around.

My new motor should be finished in about 6 weeks or so.

I shouldn't have used the in my previous post because the current motor still runs fine.
