This is a friend of mine, Joe. Ive known him since I purchased my S2K a year or so ago and began hanging out with the S2K community. Ive seen this car go from stock to a full out auto-x/track monster! This particular car has the Kraftwerks Rotrex Supercharger on it and WOW is all I have to say! I had the pleasure of picking the car up and driving it about 30 minutes back to my house! I strongly feel this is what ALL S2K's should come with STANDARD! While this car is fairly new and pampered it still had your normal swirling in the paint and the owner wanted it in even BETTER shape than it already was. This was supposed to be a 2 day detail, but the weather was laughing at me as it rained HARD the entire first day I had the car and then we had FREEZING weather(I believe we hit the 20's this week!!!) so it slowed me down quite a bit. I ended up working on the car on and off for several days, working around the weather. Anyways, on to the pics! :D

This car also has a true single weave CF hood, which needed some work after some abuse from the FL sun!

Notice here, while I am taping off the vented slots you can actually see THROUGH the CF. :D

Here, you can see just how badly it had been oxidized.

Here, I am using a LC PFW Spot Buff pad for the small sections of the vents.

He tracks this thing often, and he was already talking about a complete new brake package. ;) thanks!
 
Thats the beauty of the kit! Its total sleeper! just for reference my 100% stock s2k put down 218/140 whp/tq. With this kit you make just under 400whp/240tq. The biggest thing I like about it is my peak tq was 140 and he makes 200tq at 2k rpms!!!



If you look here, youll notice the intake is actually the charge pipe, it does not connect to the stock "air box". he reconstructed the air box to cover the air filter since he has the vented hood and was worried about water draining straight on top of the filter and into the piping.
