Under 20k and runs in the 9’s…. My turbo setup on my S2k cost more than that, not including me purchasing it new in 03… Buy a used S2k for 10K and soak another 10k (at least) in it and you still wont get into the 9’s… Beside, the reliability and use as a daily driver is diminished…

When you compare a FI’ed S2k to a stock Z06, the S is going to be quick... If you throw FI into the Z06 the S2k becomes slow… Comparing stock for stock the Z06 will punish the S2k…

The S2k is not a drag car, and John Shepard has a purpose built “drag car”… Not the same as a street driven S2k…

Look at it like this, Honda increased the displacement to 2.2 from 2.0 and there was no power increase… Generally, when other manufactures have increased displacement they increase horsepower/torque in their sports cars…
ok dude i know i am new here but u are really out of touch with what is going on with the s2... u can make a s2 hit low tens hi 9s for 20k.. its called 2jz swap or by putting a gt42 turbo in the f motor.. will it last long no not by any means but it can by done.. and yes the nsx is faster but its a 80k car new.. witch is way way to over priced for nothing...

now as far as honda making the s2k go from 2L to 2.2L was smart.. the lowered the rpm but gave it more mid range and yet still keep to same power...the only thing honda messed up with was the damn DBW..

i dont get how u have a s2 but yet u have done nothing here but put down ur own car... love my s2.. i got rid of a daily driven k swap for it... but my race car is still a kswap .. y cause it runs 10.3's on just motor and when i hand it to a v8 that thinks hes fast i love the look on there face more then winnning.... but anyway if u dont like ur car that much then u can let me know i would love to have another track car....
