I think his name was Kingtal0n or something. You just hear people talking about how the S2000 is a high compression motors, blah blah blah, not good for much boost, etc. I agree that they are misinformed, but it is an opinion that persists.

If the S2000 had just an extra 70~ horsepower from the factory I would have been all over it. And although I am not afraid to fabricate a magnificent exhaust manifold to support a small T3 topmount, the inherent nature of the S2000 engine is high compression, and it's claim to fame is RPM, two things that would make me worried everytime I put the pedal down.

Its best to just ignore trolls who don't know what they're talking about.

Word. I definitely do, but for a long time I thought it was true too because it was something people said. When you have a car that does everything well, people tend to try to find ways of picking it apart. The s2000 is certainly one of those cars.
