well if you understand why that happened, it's not that spectacular. that happened because either they didnt weld beads on the edges the the intercooler piping, they didnt tighten the clamps tight enough, or they did not weld big enough beads on the edges of the piping. it's a common problem actually. it's nothing that cant be fixed in 20 minutes.

only? you use the term very loosely. from a stand still launch, that s2k will make mine look like it's not even moving.

I always love how people have a car that has dyno's at lets say 450rwhp. They always claim though that it is a 650rwhp car to all their friends and on the internet even though it has NEVER broken 450rwhp. Their justification is that their calculations will put it at the 650rwhp mark.


I love it more when they realize that obtaining the 650rwhp mark isn't as easy as they thought, and it actually never ends up there.


And quite frankly, 850rwhp in an s2000 is going to do nothing more than slow the car down around a track. I bet a 500rwhp s2k could beat it around a track and quite possibly win in a 1/4 mile.
