You're right, Rich. My apologies to Curious. I just get defensive of my little brother. I'm the only one allowed to kick his ass, know what I mean? His car is damn fast, though. Another couple of pulls should put this debate to rest one way or another. PEACE.

 

There is no "debate."

Yes, your cars that rev to 9100-9200 rpm's sound awesome when you're standing next to them. Try 10k with fireballs shooting out the back(testpipe + Invidia)!

As others have stated, a dyno sheet one day is just that... numbers for that day on that dyno. Place it on the dash at the next car show and no one will ever know. I wanted 400hp for that very reason, but only made it to 395 on a 3rd gear run.

That said, you can probably drive yours to the Nor'easter meet and back today whereas I cannot.

 

Poor Skip, I wish things could go right for you for a while. Damn this BS bad luck streak, you have had enough. But my love for you grows with your ability to handle what is dealt to you. The thing is, I think what you have is awesome, just needs minor repair. Including the carpet.

 

Not tryin to start a flame war or anything but going from memory here, doesn't the 00-01 S2000s usually dyno about 190whp or so? The 02-03 ECU leans out the fuel a little bit up higher so they put down closer to 200whp ... A VAFC is going to put the 00-01 around the same as a 02-03, any other gains that you get from optimizing the A/F ratio isn't going to add to the peak hp, it mostly just increases the area under the curve. As far as the AEM CAI goes, its supposed to add like 10hp, but in real world dyno testing its more like 3-6hp ...

And you really can't add together bolt-on mod numbers to come to a conclusion on the peak horsepower. Even if you say base hp 190whp, VAFC +10hp, CAI +6hp, Test Pipe +6hp ... that doesn't automatically equate to 212whp.

No idea on the numbers tho ... I guess if you're happy with the results then cool!

 

Ryan, you are correct concerning ecu differences and general outputs from each year.

Like I said, dyno sheets are great for car shows and that's all. On a track(or heaven forbid, on the streets), a quick shifting and smooth driver will wax a more powerful car(within reason) if the driver isn't of the same caliber.

 

Word ... I bet I could walk your S2000 ... Cuz you know I'm a better driver and all ... ... Maybe if the charger belt shredded like it did on the way to the Dragon I could hahahaha

 

Congrats man

 

Those air fuel ratios are also a little shakey.

I dynoed at 206 and 142 torque SAE corrected. My AF ratio was something like 13.56.

With just a T1R and w/ the silencer I think with out it you gain about 1 HP more.

The guys at altered told me most s2k get 190-200 WHP.

 

Vlad, dude, do you honestly think anyone in this forum or any other forum gives a rats ass what you think? You have already been proven a liar, you can't make one single post without contradicting yourself.

You haven't been with a girl for five years, then three... then you were "like married" to a girl for 3years, etc...whatever dude get a clue, nobody here will ever believe a fvcking word that you misspell or type.

 

Oh, and thanks for the picture, we can now have more fun at your dumbass with that photo.
