lol karlen sucks. he cant sell anything hahaha

 

what all work does it need?

 

Anybody local have a stock ss/sc catback laying around that they want to sell?

 

No one?

 

Nope. You tryna get out of the cobalt game now too? lol

Almost traded in the cobalt today for a 350z. But the dealership sold it to a 75 year old lady the day before.

 

Yep parting it out and selling it just can't stand it anymore how much were they offering you? If you don't mind me asking. I am looking at s2000 and possibly a old rx7 a 93

 

Do you not like torque?

 

I don't like this car lol I have always liked the fit and finish of an s2k plus bullet proof engines (unlike ours) and if I get bored with the power its making I will just supercharge or turbocharge it now the rx7 that's just a car I have always wanted to have

 

i started a trend

::fist pump::

 

Haha that you did........

 

then call me a rebel. hahah.

 

Its not hard, but its not exactly easy to make a lot of power out of a turbo s2000. You need the right combination of parts and efficiency. Expect to pay around 16 grand on top of the car for 600 plus.

 

Dude I'll let your cobalt or G5 or whatever beat my s2000 you win is that what you want? lol I already have had an over 300 hp cobalt it's not all its cracked up to being

 

I have a 625whp s2000 FWIW.... So I'd like to think I know a little about the cost of making 600 plus on an s2000.

 

hahahahahha! nice way to end that lil convo

 

Ah sorry man thought you were trying to be a jack ass about it my bad I have always liked them would you suggest an ap1 or ap2?

 

i suggest a gallo 24 over the gallo 12.

 

Haha screw you man just go drive your cavalier around










I'm just messin what kind of stang are you getting?

 

Whichever you like. Both perform similar enough with boost that it doesn't matter one bit really. I find the AP1 vs AP2 comments comical because its like arguing over which flavor of Fla-Vor-Ice tastes best. They all taste good. 06+ s2000s are Drive By Wire and returnless fuel systems so that throws a bone in it. My buddy in KC, Joey, had Full Blown Motorsports make a set of 06+ return style dual walbro hangers. He's got a stock block white AP2 on E85 and supercharger. He made 569whp at MC Racing.

With boost in AP1s you need to watch your stock retainers as it is semi-common that they crack. AP2 retainers are a direct replacement, don't crack, and cost a little over 50 dollars for a whole set from Honda. When boosting both AP1s and AP2s, you need to watch out for warping exhaust valves. They'll warp and eventually snap in half. Inconel Supertech valves are what most people replace them with. Other that weak axles, weak differential, and weak 2nd gear theres not much else to go wrong. Just get a solid tune with REAL engine management. Not a stupid piggy back Greddy E-manage or junk AEM F/IC.

Stupid **** that people say to do that you should avoid is:
"you need to replace 00-01 s2000 2 hole oil jet bolts with the updated 2002 4 hole oil jet bolt design." They are a bitch to replace and the reason why people say to replace them doesn't even make sense. They say you need the new 4 hole oil jet bolts to prevent cylinder scoring.

"Precision turbos are junk" Most people are retards and run improper oil feed restrictors and then blame it on the turbo when they blow a seal. S2000s have a lot of oil pressure.

"If you want boost, you need to lower compression with a thick headgasket to lower compression. 11:1 compression is bad for boost." In reality the dynamic compression ratio with the cams in VTEC is like 8.8:1 so its not bad at all for boost. Theres at least a thread on s2ki every couple of weeks of people bitching that they blew their 3rd thick headgasket. They simply don't last and if theres any detonation, the head gasket lets go. The piston goes up above the deck of the block so the thick gaskets just get beat up and fail.

 

Cool thanks for the info man I'm sure I will be in contact with you on finding a good tuner and everything idk how much I want to do with it yet but I hear that they are fun cars

 

Erik at House of Boost in KC tuned Joey's before to 509whp. Joey was very happy with it. Otherwise, I could see if my buddy, Scott, down there could tune you as well. Not too many people in the area who I'd trust. I just got back a week ago from driving all the way up to Minnesota for my re-tune. Everyone said I was crazy to drive it 7 hours each way and not trailer it.

 

Mach 1 most likely. i found one that has a forged short block put in it by anderson performance ford 7k ago. and the car has 51k. but i think im gonna wait til june bc im in school too much right now.

 

John, The dealership i went to said they would give me my payoff on my car, which was 12,740. Or so I thought. Turns out my pay off is 11,165. But i'll krep telling them its 12,740 lol

 

No way so I need to sell this thing to a dealer I guess btw anybody haves stock intake or cheap intake laying around that I can pick up off of

 

hey whats goin on...youre travis..,right?
