Default S2000 vs viper

Back in 07 I bought a turbo ap1. Had a custom set up which equated to 368whp.Took my wife to rodeo dr to do some shopping. On my way back to the modesto. I ran into a viper on i-5 near magic mtn. As I saw him coming up I just keep it cool, but I guess he wanted to play. We slowed to 50mph and on his 3 rd honk we went and went. Beat him 3 times all by 2 to 4 cars. Fastest I reached was 140 something. Red rt viper with white stripes. It was a good race.

368 at around 82-85% efficiency sets you at 430-450 crank horsepower. Taking into account the s2000 is 600 odd lbs lighter, seems possible
