W/the SOHC you can still turbo it...but I would recommend looking into doing the DOHC swap and then turbo'ing it. F-Max or Nsport make great turbo kits but those are for the DOHC...you can pick up a DOHC full swap for less than 800 bux...and it will definitely be worth it considering you open the doors to more possibilities in the aftermarket w/the DOHC.

Supercharge...no one has done it and it hasnt been accomplished...ppl are working on it but the hard part is the custom intake manifold where the supercharger will sit. Still a work in progress and not really worth it if you get the right sized turbo to suit your needs.

supercharge are mostly for american cars and turbocharge are mainly found on japanese car. so the idea of supercharging a japanese engine is not really popular among people. the american tried to turbocharge their car in the past but was unsuccessful.

thats not true with the domestic turbocharging. one of the most famous mustangs is the fox body svo i forget the year it was early 80's though. it was a turbocharged 4 cylinder that ran with the 8 cylinders:silly2:

Right now, the only real aftermarket booster for the S2000 is a comptech supercharger. Also, dont forget the infamous '87 Buick GNX; a turbocharged 3L putting down 12 sec 1/4 miles.
