s2000 management
I've done 3 hmt setups so far, but I've got a new dilemma. My buddy wants to turbo his s2000. The mechanical part isn't the problem, theres places that make headers or we could probably do it. But I don't really know what to do for management. The only thing I've use is the safc hack. (I've done a 91 civic w/b16 and a h23 prelude). He showed me some people on s2000 forums but they were using greddy or aem and nuts to that. I was thinking megasquirt, maybe. But what do you guys think.
thanks in advance |

Re:s2000 management
yeah I've done the hack on two cars but he wants to do this one up right. He doesn't mind spending some money just not to much. The only problem I have with the hack is the timing issues, also I couldn't use nice cheap 450's Cause the injectors on this are much bigger than a D or B series, I'm sure.

Re:s2000 management
There are plenty of turbocharged s2000s on honda-tech, i'd ask them. I'd also stay away from the hack. That engine is pushed to the limit as-is... I wouldn't want to ghett0-fy the engine management... that would be an expensive headache. :-X

Re:s2000 management
get some...750cc injectors and AEM or another suitable standalone.

Re:s2000 management
I have heard of a bug in the AEM software that affects S2000's so I would stay away from that.
I wouldnt go anything less than full stand-alone...and I would recommend talking to Ben Strader on Honda-Tech about Autronic. If he has an S2000, he can afford to do it correctly. Also, check out the EFI101 forums, I believe there are many people that have experience with S2000 FI builds www.efi101.com/forum |
Re:s2000 management
What I don't understand is I've seen a few s2000s running just an fmu and vafc, that sounds kind of shady to me.
One thing I was thinking of is use a low ratio fmu like 8:1 or 6:1, a vafc, and an additional injector. I know I've seen small add on injector controllers, but I can't remember where. Does any one know what I'm talking about and do yall think this would work?? and Thanks for all the help. Oh and I looked at autronic a little bit and it looked real expensive. |
Re:s2000 management
People with expensive cars better get expensive fuel management...it aint' that expensive compared to the price tag of the car

Re:s2000 management
Yeah but he's not some rich kid, he makes decent money but has a huge car payment. It's kind of dumbb too assume that because some one has a realatively expensive car, that they have a lot of extra money lying around, it is often quite the opposite.

Re:s2000 management
My advice then is buy a cheap civic and boost that. Why risk blowin up a s2000 motor.

Re:s2000 management
Why is it dumb, I'm willing to bet that half of the people here had a little extra money they would buy another car newer car or something like that. I bet when you bought your last car you didn't say hmmm I can afford a 9 thousand dollar car but I'm gonna spend 3 thousand. just so I stil have extra money.
But I digress, I didn't ask you your opinion On whether Some one should have bought a certain car, or your opinion on someones economic status. I'm pretty sure the main point of this site is doing things your self and doing things cheaper than all te ricers. In conclusion shut your ------- mout before I piss in it. And thanks for the helpful responses. |

Re:s2000 management
If he cant afford a 2000.00 fuel management unit then he cant afford a 7500.00 longblock to replace the mess you make, walk away from the project and keep your friend. ;)
