my spark plugs are due to be changed, what plugs is everyone running with these kits?
i will be running NGK IRIDIUM IX SPARK PLUGS HEAT 8 BKR8EIX 2668, although the standard plugs would be ok too, but as i dont think mine have been changed since the car was new in 2005, i thought i may as well change them for the ones people use on boosted cars
I have a brand new set of BKR8EIX for sale if you are interested?

Tried sending you a PM but your mailbox is full. How much are you wanting for the plugs delivered?

Install manual says not to run the charger without the supercharger belt as it runs the water pump pulley. Looking at the diagram in the manual it does not look like it does? can anyone confirm?

in my novice mind, looks like you just replace the crank pulley with the extended one in the kit, and then you put the original belt back on routed to the normal way, and which in turn turns the supercharger pulley that the supercharger belt is attached to? so if you take the super charger belt off then all that will happen is the supercharger wont spin and the waterpump will still run off the normal belt?

Im just thinking of ways i can get the car to the tuner, and unsure if taking the belt off and running the normal ECU, injectors and map sensor will be safe for 8 miles

You can drive the car to the tuner with an OEM map. Its only when you push the throttle hard that the bypass valve will close and force boost into the engine. When i first fitted mine i mapped it myself but i had a fault map sensor which wouldnt see boost and the car was still driveable i just had to touch the throttle very lightly. Im sure someone could do you a map that would get you there based on what mods youve got.

In regards to the pulley you get a modified one and your right the only thing that runs of the super charger is the tensioner and idler pulley. Everything runs off the standard belt as per normal.

while the kits being installed is it worth changing the rad over to an aluminium unit? and will the Tegiwa or Mishimoto 2 row be sufficient? or is it worth the extra cash for the 3 row mishimoto rad?

We have the S2000 twin and three core in stock - Mishimoto have a lifetime warranty even if the unthinkable happens on track. I can offer you all 10% Mishimoto on the website.

Its not so much about the number of cores. If you fit a very wide core then it will be harder to get the air through the radiator to keep it cool. What you need is a dual pass radiator but they are expensive!

I hear a container has arrived at HKS!

If everyone that hasn't paid could start making preparations for their final payments that would be great!

Si there's only one listed for the s2000 on your website, is this the twin or three core?
