I live with my girlfriend, and she's absolutely insatiable....so thats not the problem...

S4KiD, I will restate what I said too. It IS POSSIBLE to beat a WS6. And I will add that I didn't say likely, as we all know its unlikely, but it IS POSSIBLE. And its panties. Not pannies.

"S4KiD, I will restate what I said too. It IS POSSIBLE to beat a WS6."

Yes Blake, it is possible to beat a WS6 but highly unlikely in a stock or intake & exhaust modified S2000. There is no substitute for Torque. Torque x RPM equals Horsepower. Gearing is not in the equation for some strange reason.

For each his own and keep dreaming! I put a Mugen Sticker on my Honda Harmony 5 HP Mower and I believe it is possible that it is faster now! I am thinking I can take my neighbors Toro in a strait line as he has a mulching attachment and his mower weighs 20 pounds more. See you are the drag strip! Or mowing the yard...

Um...gearing changes the amount of torque to the wheels. If I have a car with lower torque, but also lower gearing, than my effective torque (the torque to the wheels) is actually higher. I'm not gonna waste my time doing a search, but you'd be surprised that when taking into account gearing, the S2000 is not too far off, since it is geared so low.

Correction: Horsepower = (Torque * given RPM)/ 5252

And gearing has a lot to do with how your car accelerates.

If I were to tell you "These chips cost $1.77," would you then ask me, "Does that price you quoted me include the packaging?" NO!


And like I said, gimme $5k and I'll give you a 10sec Mustang. Yes, that $5k includes the price I paid for the Mustang.
Your such a dumbass.
