LOL you PM'd me. I was like otis nga here want to run my rims and my hardtop?

and yeah i had all my stuff up for sale but, locked the thread due to me getting another s2000 shortly. don't know what i want to keep but, i know hardtop and wheels are real high up on the list.

and at BBQ meet i want to see the apexi set up... and how it works. seems like an interesting mod for NA applications. that much tq diff. is really a selling point with our cars on account of how anemic our cars are in that department.

Sounds good. . Im sure ill be boosted within 6 mos. Just have to save for the $5000 kit. unless you know a cheaper way to go about it thats still a good kit. But at that point ill end up buying a AEM piggy back and the neo up for sale.

You can take your .... (( you should have got this and not that )) crap to some other page! Do you even know anything about the NEO? Look at the dyno sheets. You see the HP and TQ from the 1st stock pull? The map is all wavy and what I dont have posted is that the air/fuel from stock is off almost all the way across the map. The neo adds or takes away fuel from the map every 500 rpm's to match the air coming in so the air/fuel is smooth and right on yop if each other all the way threw the map.

Think about it. .... You add an intake to your car. You think you will get more power? Maybe 2 HP at the most. Thats because your car is sucking in more air but the ecu doesnt know to add more fuel to the extra air. So at that point your air/fuel map is off. The neo lets you add more fuel to the spots where your getting more air so your map is smooth all the way threw.

2nd... You have 2 maps in the ecu! And the neo has 2 maps on it. 1st map is when your just farting around town. You can tune your neo ( -1 fuel every 500 rpm ) and you will save mpg. The 2nd map is when your running it hard around town. it will read the 1st map until you dump the gas but then it runs on the 2nd map. the NEO tuned will have added or takin away fuel to match the air intake to give you the best power.


To the guy that has stated he has one in his car but has never did anything to it. Go have it tuned. Dont do it yourself. You will love it after words. Also there is a setting in the neo that will drop all tune settings and run stock.
i do it for the piece of mind.. whats a few hundred dollars more to ensure that your ecu doesnt fight the neo.. on top of the great features like launch control that i havent even gotten a chance to test out yet

While I agree that neo isnt that great the man is happy with it and has a wideband so he wont be out of know when the ecu starts trying to correct itself. So let it go.

Looking to go turbo. Iv read alot about what you need to do and how to go about it. I just have a few questions. I know I can run around 7 lbs boost on stock. And if i run more i need to lower my compression. Will the $300 gasket work ? and what psi can I up to then? other then changing pistons and stuff. What can I do? And I need a part list to start the ordering one by one. Nothing over the top please.


Also... what about NOS? dry or wet 50 shot? Is it worth it? Would that be less stress on the motor because i would only use it just a few times a mo.?

No bashing please..
