I am going to race my buddies vortech supercharged s2000 that is stock with the exception of the s/c and catback. I have a 2000 Camaro SS with all boltons, m6, street tires, how will the outcome be?

Just race and post the results. Get vid. S/C S2000s CAN be pretty fast little cars.

that's what i was thinking guys.. i should have the edge.. we can't race. have snow on the roads..have to wait a little longer for spring weather..

yea be careful s2k's are tricky.

lhugrad03

he is running 8lbs of boost..

I wouldn't shrug it off as nothing, they're light and they make about 240hp stock. With 8psi and close to ~300bhp which is pretty conservative. It would give you a run for your money.

2600 lbs. Be careful.

lhugrad03

they actually weigh 2850lbs. plus the weight of the supercharger(about 50 lbs.) still not very heavy though

Yeah you're right... Don't know why I thought it was less. Maybe I bought into what some S2K owner told me

you will win. the vortech kit comes with a 7lbs pulley and fmu. if he doesnt have a correct tune on the car which he really cant unless he goes full standalone (honda kinda screwed them) like an AEM standalone. My friends Vortech + aftercooler on 7psi put down 306whp @ 8000 rpm....... Below 3000 rpm he was still under 80whp..... His torque numbers where 165 @ 5500rpm. (or around there) so totally pointless. Uptop they are pretty nasty but it takes them forever to get going. Plus from a stop there rearend is a complete glass chin even more so then the GM 10-bolt. If they hook good once or twice on there stock rearend its donzo.

Foot Notes- You will win if drivers are equal.

I read on Import tuners they had a project S2000 w/ Vortech S/C and ran mid 14s consistantly. So yeah, they're turds.

ya.... totally pointless....


now if they got a turbo + standalone they can get going. they are hitting high 10's on stock bottom end i beleive with a gt40r.

local girl has a gt30r set-up on her car and that bitch MOVES. full standalone @ 17psi + headgasket
