Congrats Terry on the cover (615rwhp on a conservative 22psi):



Issue Preview: Nov. 2004

Best of Breed

Think you know who has the fastest or most powerful EVO, S2000 and 350Z in the world? Well keep thinking because we found them and they are all on the East Coast, the tri-state area to be exact. We feature the fastest of the platform that are all fully street legal. It was a thrill to discover them and a miracle we got them all in one spot for this striking cover story. So don

With only a 175shot, I'm within 5whp of that S2000. No boost.

But I'm willing to bet I've got 100wtq on it.

nice nice nice...but honestly, WHAT is this good for? 2-3 dyno runs on a motor show and than back to the garage to fix it? I will never get the point of this kind of set-ups anyway, for the owner and the hard work

And how many extra CCs of displacement do you have? Sometimes, it's not about how much power you make. Sometimes it's about making a lot of power with a little engine.

While 1000hp is 1000hp, I'm much more impressed with a 3.0L V10 that makes 1000hp than I am by a 6.0L V8 that makes the same power (even though the V8 makes more torque).

not really the car was driven for a while but it creates too much tire spin and again the weak link of this car the diff also failed. The setup worked effectively and the car was driven to various shows on the east coast. Recently, Terry drove the car from NJ to Atlanta (Nopi Nationals) and back. No problems. I wonder where your comments comes from Jakub??

First, it's a 5.7-liter , and second that other S2000 is boosted to . Mine is a heads/cam bolt-on with spray. I pass emissions, get 15+ mph (when I try), and am as reliable as any other LS6.

Oh, and BTW, I'm more impressed by a 500ci engine making 8000hp than I am a 120ci engine making... Wait, scratch that. No 120ci engine makes 8000hp.

People don't realize what it takes to get 600hp out of an S2000. I had close to 400 and the car wanted to spin the wheels in the 1st 3 gears. I got a quote for a new rear end with drive train $7,200.00 and maybe more.. What size Turbo did he do this with?.. My map on the AEM computer gets me boost and big torque at 3,000rpm instead of 4,000 like most big horsepower s2000's.. I give this guy props..
