Default S2000 Vs SRT-4

I was driving home the other day when i was approached on a bridge by a silver SRT-4 He gives me in my silver S2000 a rev and his bov sounds louder then hell. We both step on it and it seemed those things have quite a bit of lag. We never really got to get a good run but just a little tease. We work right next door to eachother i found out. Were gonna race pretty soon i have Headers and a CAI hes stock. Or is he, cuz his BOV is louder then all hell....


Anyone S2k Owners have any troubles with these neons yet...?

Well we ran tonight at 12:00 PST it was the crapiest place ever to race started on a minor uphill. But anyway i have him count to 3 and were off.. immediatly I pull a car length on his FWD car. and i kept that 1 length car distance all the way to 120 then we shut down. There were a bunch of spectators so i switched into his lane just to piss him off, he was quite cocky about the whole deal... But after the deal it was a thumbs up then we met down the road and all he has is a after market BOV.... He offered to buy me and my buddies drinks but damnit only 20 =( But from what he was telling me that car is gonna be mean the Stage 3 kit makes it to 500 hp 500 torque???????? is this true cuz holy damn thats one mean neon

The only way that neon is going to make 500 HP is if Stage three is an adapter kit for the Viper engine

A stage 3 kit must be expensive because it would require at least building up the motor. In that case you won't see many with it. I think the SRT-4 is a real cool car but I certainly wouldn't own one. Not many want to buy a $20K car to spend $5K to $15K+ in mods on the care.

The SRT-4 is defiantly a faster car stock for stock.

But the S2k is in a different class, they can't really be compared.

Plus, the s2k wasn't designed for a straight line.

The stage 3 package would make ~300/300 wheel hp/torque according to the SRT boys.
