Its a single turbo, but dunno which kit is it. I imagine the swap for a s2k would cost and arm and a leg especially if your getting a 6speed-V160 transmission. Obviously some cutting and welding of the frame may be nvolved. It can cost from $8k++ to do a basic TT engine swap for a NA supra or sc300 depending on whether your purchasing certain parts new or used. And expect a lot of downtime if your planning on getting the parts cheap and used especially if your going 6speed because those parts are nearly impossible to find.
Obviously this car won't be able to handle corners the way it suppose.
Practially it would be better to use a 1JZ since the engine is 2.5liters, have almost the same bulletproof engine power as the 2jz and also cheaper, but why butcher this car.

doesn't seem practical. A built S2000 motor will put out competitive numbers compared to a 2jz. The only advantage I see is the jetrag transmission, which is almost bulletproof.

That's a inline 6 with a cast iron block....has to weigh double what the F20C does. More hp would be nice but the car would be unusable for anything other than drag racing.

Now THAT I would love to see. LS1 is a relatively light engine as well.

S2000 with a 2JZ is far better way making the S2000 fast for whatever street racing or 1/4 track.
Shit show me an S2000 running 9 seconds in street form. I don't have to list names, Supra's have done it all day long.
I owned the S2000, i though a turbo would cover my need for a faster car, even though when I bought the S2000 i knew that the S2000 was not a fast car it was a fun car. I sold the S2000 to fill the need to have a fast car. Hence, IS300 with 720hp.
