you will be challenging reliability for a 400hp with stock internal and compression.

This is just a thought, Why a S/C when you can get a turbo for less and go faster?www.inlinepro.com just go there and look at the turbo set up. Or go to www.turbounlimited.com. My car is the black one on both sites. I ran a 12.8 @ 112mph with 320rwhp. Just think my tuurbo set up makes 75 more rwhp then a S/C s2k @ 5500 rpms. We both have the same top end power but I rape them from a dead stop. Now I have my new diff, 3in ext that Inline is going to make for the publ, and the 625cc injs. thats good for 456rwhp @ 18 lbs. GET A TURBO

Some of us have to deal with smog certification and the superchargers are CARB certified. There are no smog legal turbo S2000s in California. I can't speak for other states.

(I have a few more but those links are broken. )

For every person who boasts about how cheap and easy it is, there are handfuls of others who will tell you otherwise.
Can you be honest and tell us just how much in TIME and MONEY it took you to get a turbo car to run well on a daily basis? And you are the first one in the US mainland posting with a time like that and NOT breaking the car at the end of the strip. Where have you been?

Because the s2k drive train is weak!
The only beauty of a sc system are no lag, linear power delivery and less sudden stress on the drive train if driven properly. It's also more controllable on the track or hill.

I love the turbo's g force but I must resist this in the s2k. I know that I will just wind up the boost and shatter the diff/box/shafts. I will only go turbo if I strengthen the drive train and use the s2k for the dragstrip. The cost of doing this is not worth it. I rather invest that into a turbo car with a stronger factory drivetrain and know that I can pass the light less than 10sec

I ran the car all day Sat and Sun at nopi in Richmond. Thats where I did the 12.8. If anyone wants to see the pics of the time slip, the pics of the race the time at the end of the track, and the dyno of my car up to a S/C Ill be more then happy to send them to you. I have had some problems but most were my falt. Ive had the turbo for about 6months and its time for a new diff. I run the hell out of my car, way more then most. I hope my car will be done for Tech. this weekedn at MIR. If it is you can watch me run there. With the turbo, motor, and the diff I would say I have abot 15,000-20,000. In the car. Or you can talk to John that owns Inline and he has the stage 2 kit and never broke a part. We have both been at the track

There are plenty of people that blew there motors with superchargers to, you just don't hear about them as much. The people who had turbo in the beginning didn't have a strong reliable setup because no one wanted to invest time and money into a nice turbo setup. Now numerous companies offer turbo kits for the S2K and any of them will knock the socks off a SC any day. Sorry to say, done right the first time they will both cost about the same and turbo will always be superior to SC any day. Also, about breaking driveline parts, you can break them with a stock car if you drive aggressive enough, its not only condoned to a turbo setup.
