Got no opinion on which motor is better man. Chill out.
There's no point finding you the differences between the two engines. A little more torque and that's it but you won't take my word for it I guess.Was just commenting on something I heard.

I have heard ppl say that the 2.0 motor is a better one than the 2.2, which is why car tuners such as J's Racing revised their engine to 2.2 based on the F20C engine.

It's not just torque, it's power too, do you believe everything Honda tells you? Every dyno I've seen usually records the F22C making 5-15whp more, and that's not just a redline, that's throughout the power band. You'll need to add I/H/E to a F20C to equal an F22C. And don't worry, I'm chilled as can be. I just don't want false info. getting spilled.

The AP2 did have a marginal win...but it doesn't seem as powerful as you said...

OK, you guys win, it's not worth my time or effort to tell you facts you won't face. Good Luck and it is a damn nice S2000 you've bought. That exhaust is awesome, one of the best. I like the red emblems on BB as well.
FWIW, I've owner 1 BB AP1, and I'm on my second GPW AP2. I've had S2000's for over 5 years now, excuse my ignorance and lack of knowledge.

Have you seen the japanese video of AP1 going against the AP2? The AP2 sure doesn't seem to have an increase of 5-15whp in power...
