Well I may be looking at getting a turbo charger. I don't want to go with a pro-charger, or super charger.
So questions associated with a turbo.
- I want 320-350 WHP max. I want a smallish turbo that will spool pretty fast, but also not be to exhausted at WOT.
-Also to lower the compression of the motor would a 3mm head gasket be advisable?
- Why does everyone use a remote oil filter, does ti get in the way of the turbocharger.
- What tuning would need to be done on the car? What type of ECU would be the best choice for me.
- Size injectors would be used. I know when i did some supra it was a 1:1 ratio every HP was 1cc of fuel.
- Should I create a kit? I like that idea more than spending a shit ton on a kit?

If you stay NA, do a Berk high flow cat and a Skunk2 Megapower exhaust + gears. You'll feel it, no doubt. Buy the exhaust parts used to save $$; you can resell it all later. You'll probably want earplugs though.
No, don't do a head gasket. People seem to blow the aftermarket ones regularly, and they aren't needed unless you build something crazy.
Some turbo kits require relocating something because there's just not much room. If they relocate the oil filter, it's because the turbo or piping needed to fit there instead.
There are plenty of ECU opinions floating around, but they all seem to work OK. Some can/can't be used with some S2000 model years though.
Creating a kit is a great way to go if you know enough to do it. If not, there are several good alternatives.
If you value reliability most, go with a supercharger. If you want to add gobs of power below VTEC or make monster power at high rpm, turbos do both better. If you want the cheapest solution, buy a used kit - but make sure you know its history and trust the seller.
For what you want, a Greddy kit with a GT3076R upgrade sounds about right.

I am shooting for 300 WHP to 350 WHp. A stock HG will be fine you say? Should I at least do arp head studs?
I wish I knew a little more about S2000's and their engines, I did the Ap2 retainers already and a cltuch so i know my way around the motor, I just do not want to blow it up!

Try design craft fab's electronic cam system. It seems promising if you don't want to go FI. You can read the making of it

Don't be so quick to go boost if you want to run the dragon faster. Boosted cars lack throttle response. Ask anyone who runs a track with boost, it sucks. And I'm talking GOOD track drivers.
