Awesome man. Be sure to post some vids when you get yours done!

Thanks man!

Thanks man!

Thanks!

Thanks man! Science of speed makes it easy. 9.9/10 fitment. I went with the gt3582r.

Awesome! It should be a good upgrade from the kraftwerks kit. I had 2 issues 1. Make sure the 45 deg fitting on the turbo drain is facing as close to the compressor housing as possible. Mine was a little too far away and I had to take the whole assembly back out because it hit the motor mount bracket. 2. I had to move the intercooler brackets farther back in order to keep the front grille/not cut away most of it. Everything else went smoothly and the fitment of the kit is great.

You could probably knock it out in a weekend if you had all the parts. I was waiting on the ECU to come in as well as for the valve cover to get back from powder coating, so the car was down about a month for me.

The power of editing makes it looks easier haha. Kinda hard to say how long it took. The car was down for a month but a lot of that was because I was waiting on parts to come in. If you had everything on hand you could probably knock it out in a weekend.

Thanks! ECU depends on what year your car is. I'm running AEM infinity

@@dpgarage4501 My car is 2003

@@fifie1 AEM infinity, AEM EMS, Haltech, KPRO, are all good options.

@@dpgarage4501 Thanks a lot

I didn’t run it that way long enough to really test it out. I pulled the pan to do the oil squirter bolts and when I did that I went ahead and had a bung welded on the pan. That is how science of speed recommended it be done though so I can only assume they tested it.

@@dpgarage4501 have you heard of the timing cover method? I’ve seen hearing on the forums it’s the easiest way to do it and you can easily revert it to stock

It’s definitely a tight fit, but it went in surprisingly easier than I was expecting it to. I’m kind of mixed about the forward facing manifolds. Part of me would like to switch to one for the obvious reasons (more power, they look awesome, could run an external wastegate), but there are some real cons to them as well (more likely to crack, heat wrapping everything in the engine bay, generally have to move more things to make it fit). If you think you’re going to want more than 450Hp I’d go with a forward facing manifold. If not, the SOS manifold is a great option.

Thank you for your input!

Yeah you have to unscrew the -8AN fitting to change the oil. I have since had an actual drain bung welded to the pan so I didn’t have to mess with it when changing the oil.

It comes with the science of speed turbo kit.

@@dpgarage4501 ok thanks, going to see if they sell it separately.. i want to do a custom turbo set up using a cast manifold, so that mount will help with clearance.

Yeah you'll need a bigger fuel pump/ injectors/ ECU/ and tuning.

If you’re using the SoS TS max kit, I had to modify the IC brackets to scoot them back a little farther to be able to keep most of the front grill.

I didnt run it this way long enough to notice a difference. I eventually pulled the oil pan and had a bung welded onto the pan. It was a pain to change the oil with the turbo drain going where science of speed had it.

I hear ya lol. I was thinking 10k and ended up being around 12k including the clutch. Some of that was unrelated expenses (clutch master cylinder, slave cylinder, powder coated valve cover etc) and some of it was “I’m already spending the money, might as well do it right” lol. Ended up splurging on the SOS AEM infinity with oil/fuel pressure sensors and install kits.

@@dpgarage4501 same boat thank you for that. I appreciate you replying

That’s a good question. You might be able to unbolt the SOS bracket from the engine, lift the engine with a jack (unbolt the 2 bolts on the driver side mount too) and wiggle out the mount/bracket assembly. It’s a super tight fit though.

@@dpgarage4501 Similar question but a little different. During the install is it relatively easy to R&R the OEM engine mounts with new OEM mounts? Have you tuned the car and what have your results been? My kit ships in Aug.

I haven’t had it on a dyno yet but it should be around 400whp at 14psi on 93 octane.

That's where Science of Speed designed their kit to drain to. I can only assume they did their research. I had a bung welded to the oil pan after this video was made because the turbo drain made oil changes a pain.

Hard to say really. The car was down for like a month but a lot of that was waiting on parts to come in. If you had everything on hand you could probably knock it out in a weekend.

I havent had it on a dyno yet but it should be around 400whp with this setup

@@dpgarage4501 nice. Im doing a similar set up, but i swapped a full F20 into a RX8. And need to rum these manifold to make the turbo fit

Science of speed TS max kit.

Science of speed TS max

@@dpgarage4501 how are you liking it so far and how long / how much did it take to tune it

@@gray_ghost5.738 so far it’s been awesome! The power comes on fast and pulls all the way to redline with the gt3582r turbo. I went the e-tuning route with a tuner who specializes in s2000s since I don’t have any reputable tuners near by. But it was a fairly painless process.

@@dpgarage4501 what e tuner did you use. I have a 2000 s2000 with 8400 original miles yes 8 thousand 400. And I'm scared to death I will blow it up lol 😆
