Post What A Difference

So my friend just bought a 2002 s2k. Mine has been turbo for about 6months now and i havent been in /driven one without a turbo on it for a while. Car is beautiful, berlina, all black inside. Has 30k on it, but anyways i get in it and i start to drive away. It felt like i was floating, it was so smooth and quiet, i stepped on the gas hit vtec a few times and almost fell asleep behind the wheel, lol they just dont compare when you go f/i, there is no force throwing you back into the seat, no violent sucking noises from the turbo anymore, no tire spinning it was just so tame....i guess once u go f/i you never go back! i know i wont

well after time when you get used to your boost you start thinking my car doesnt go as much as it used to...and than you start thinking more boost....and you want more...
than you think how to do it...
and now is the right time to give yourself a Wake UP call...
Go and drive a Stock S2000
than you know its enough.

for as much as i love my FI car, i really miss the induction and crazy wail of an N/A S2k... the lack of power is its only downside...

yea it was a good wake up call, I got so used to my car that I thought something was wrong with it, but when I got in his car it was just so boring, I remember when I first got my S, vtec kicking in hard. but I guess I was use to the boost throwing me back before vtec and not feeling that kick. when I drove it I was waiting for the vtec to nudge me back, but I forgot there is no trq/power on a stock s2... but oh well just wanted to share my experience.
