Are you talking about Spa or Rio with CF parts?

BEE?

Stena did you write that whole paragraph or are you quoting some person or magazine?

The NA/stock S2000 is fun, but it isn't fast. Same can be said for SCed. The new Z06 is fast.

I got a little lost between the drag racing on the 1)street, 2)diesel power, 3)mpg.

1) Street racing is gay. It happens, but so do a lot of illegitimate children. Use protection, or pay the fine

2) We are getting the NEW diesels here late Autumn 2006. Should be much cleaner and faster like in Europe. The endurance tests on the C-class sedans were impressive.

3) With boost, MPG is pathetic unless you have a turbo diesel. Don't even try to compare it to NA/diesel, you car will lose and you will cry. I am sure you pay more per litre, than we do per gallon for the same volume. Currently ~$2.75/gallon for 91 (premium) here and ~$4.45/gallon for 100 (moonshine).

we Pay 1 euro 1 liter here. that's a gallon for 5$ regular I think.
Wait and try the Common-Rail Diesels that will come..
As a bee I meant that when you compare a CBR 600 with a 1000cc.
the 600cc is a bee..you have to wind it up and you have power.Not with the 1000cc.They pull right away.So does our car.Its like a bee compared to other with bigger engines. you have to Rev it so it can compare or hold its ground.
And yes the Z06 is Great.If you want power out of the box you buy that...
And if you think the S isn't fast sell it,Buy a new car.Don't complain about it,just get rid of it and never look back.
Anyway this isn't going nowhere so I will have to let it go and get back to the Science of Speed power Upgrade,No need to Hi-jack the tread-I am sorry if it was me.But Turbo Guys Stay out of this one and Stop telling us SC how great a Turbo is and that we should have gone that way because you didn't like the SC.
And Street Racing isn't Gay.People Are Gay,and some act that way.
Buy a diesel and buy a track day car and if that does it for you,than great.
I don't Upgrade my car so it will be the fastest,I just do it so I get a little faster car.And when somebody wants a race,Games up....
No matter who wins,the thrill is what you pay for.And if you win..well even better.
And I have read funny arguments like this before and they are amusing so if this one is too than its good.So I am gonna stop being a smart ass and I hope there wont be anymore wise-ass replies so in the end Everybody is entitled to their Joy and what's gets it up for someone doesn't necessary mean that everybody should feel the same.We are all different and that's why there are so many products and kinds of things out there so it will please every taste..
Back to the topic and
Enjoy the Honda S2000.

So if we agree that the SC does very little for low end torque but a correctly spec'd turbo does then we have an accord.
I agree.
SC is SC and Turbo Is Turbo.
If they would be the same than we wouldnt have what to write for.
But than again what would you say about teh New SC that is in Works?
The Eaton SC from BRP?will it have torque ?Down low?


And you guys are funny.Soo smart...

You understand that my native language isnt english right?

But from somewhere in this galaxy...that has internet access.

SC is belt driven so impellar velocity is...less. Regardless of hotside, coldside, centrifugal, roots, eaton...whatever.

Don't worry it's still a bee, just think of it as a bee failing miserably on the atkins diet with no perception of control, and the possibility of its wings becoming vestigial.
