red00s2k · 10-14-2009, 10:03 PM

im starting a project and im building my motor and i am looking for a good supercharger an about how big should i go. Im kno i should go turbo but at this time i dont have the funds to do that maybe later i will but a supercharger would be good for next season to have and maybe a lil jucie (maybe). So if anyone can help me find a good supercharger used i would be very happy.

My Vortech SC is self lubricated, no tappn the oil pan.

S2KCRick · 10-15-2009, 10:20 AM

red00s2k · 10-15-2009, 01:50 PM

gomarlins3 · 10-15-2009, 03:33 PM

I also would suggest Comptech, but the Vortec one has worked well for others for many years.

lol I agree I must admit I used to always want to tell people to search but I have realized its really annoying, I search for things on s2ki and find threads of people telling that person to search for the answer

S2KCRick · 10-16-2009, 10:49 AM

I had mine dyno'd on a dynapack and a dynojet.

Dynapack had me at 311hp
Dynojet had me at 358hp.

Check out Kraftwerks as well: http://cms.kraftwerksusa.com/
I dont know anyone that has one of these kits, but it sounds interesting. This is Oscar Jackson's (Jackson Racing) new company.

red00s2k · 10-26-2009, 03:38 PM

I'm coming along good with my project. I'm ordering parts next week, would like to kno if the sc for the s2k spin clockwise or counter clockwise?

RL1924 · 10-26-2009, 04:04 PM

What s/c did you decide to go with?

turbosix · 10-26-2009, 04:10 PM

it moves in an elliptical orbit, actually.

red00s2k · 10-26-2009, 07:35 PM

Nice thats what Im running as well... When you say "everything" Is he running a smaller pulley with higher than stock boost so your getting ems and what not? Don't forget you will probably need a new clutch as well, I still cant make up my mind what clutch to run.

I got the ACT-HDSS clutch. Works great. At first, it was super stiff and bit hard, after a few hundred miles of break-in, it's not so stiff anymore but still bites. I was gonna get the Exedy clutch, but those are expensive.

RealJoKeR · 10-27-2009, 10:35 AM

Kraftwerks makes a good 1.....but good luck with yours

Yea I know, I have a phobia of the ACT, It could be a myth it could be nothing but two people I personally know have gotten crank walk with there ACT clutch and both needed new motors. It may have nothing to do with the ACT clutch but I would just feel safer without it.

turbosix · 10-27-2009, 12:46 PM

its the HD pressure plates.

competition clutch is another one, i would probably go with their carbon kevlar stage 2 setup for $600

Whos carbon kevlar stage? CC? or act?

turbosix · 10-27-2009, 01:30 PM

CC. not ACT.

Yea thats what I was looking at but after searching s2ki, few people say it wont hold up at higher boost, even though it claims it can handle it so Im not sure what to do. I started looking at sos new clutch, but there aren't many people that haven used it yet so Im not sure I want to be the test dummy

Whats crank walk?

RL1924 · 10-27-2009, 02:27 PM

Basically the pressure plate puts too much pressure on the crank shaft pushing it forward and causing a whole heap load of problems. Pretty sure but if im wrong Im sure someone can correct me

S2KCRick · 10-27-2009, 02:30 PM

I just read up on it, sounds like a problem mainly with DSM engines 95-97, but could cause problems with other engines.

The peeps that you know, are their rides mitsubishi?

Oh no both s2000's

S2KCRick · 10-27-2009, 03:03 PM

Reading up on crank walk, dealers like to claim the cause to be aftermarket pressure plates, but this can occur with stock pressure plates. The root cause is actually the crankshaft itself.

S2KCRick · 10-27-2009, 03:04 PM

I learned something new today, yay for me!

RL1924 · 10-27-2009, 03:06 PM

Lol yea... I mean if you read up it has happen to people with different clutches and few stock, Majority have the act clutch/pressure plate, But that could just be because lot of people have the ACT over other clutches so more room for error but.. Im to afraid to take the chance

S2KCRick · 10-27-2009, 03:10 PM

Yea i hear ya, I'm definitely concerned as well. But your gonna need a new clutch pretty soon. Maybe a new thread should be started huh? To see who has had this problem with the S.

RL1924 · 10-27-2009, 03:20 PM

Not on s2000.com not that many people are even running different clutches, but you should look at contacting ACT, Since so many people have had the issue they revamped there design and they have a new pressure plate which applies less pressure. A local guy i know that got the crank walk they replaced his with there new one for free, Now if you ask me if there willing to do that I feel like they have to think there somewhat to blame.

Sorry we jacked your thread lol

S2KCRick · 10-28-2009, 02:56 PM

Yea im gonna hit up ACT, i think i have the most current pressure plate tho. So ACT replaced the crank and pressure plate for free?

Nah he actually had to get a whole new motor, But he had the Greddy turbo in it which he sold to help fund the new motor but ACT swapped his pressure plate free of charge. Its worth a shot to contact them tell them you know two guys that got crank walk with it and there is a lot of talk about it being caused by there older designed pressure plate and if they would swap it, Its worth a shot.

red00s2k · 10-29-2009, 12:55 PM

I have been looking into the new science of speed clutch, and have heard some good things about the Clutch masters stage 3. Your diff and driveshaft should be fine, What type of boost you thinking of running? Im ordering the sos 3" pulley for mine which im thinking will be around 12-13lbs

dean9756 · 10-29-2009, 11:01 PM

I just bought a 2005 s2000 that seemed screaming fast for the 1st 500 miles. Now I'm looking at chargers, chips, (turbos are out - I'm married.....)
Anyone looked at the electric Superchargers and chips? - they claim more HP and better gas mileage (hey, I'm married!)
I am new here, so be gentle - the last sportser I had was a '72 TR6.....
Thanks for your help!

red00s2k · 10-30-2009, 05:19 PM

i should be running abut 12 lbs
