ROFL. Did you know Chuck Norris is responsible for his own creation? He kicked a guy so hard that he went back in time and married his mother..

can't forget the APC intakes and chrome nautical scoops! They might only add a few horsepower, but give so much more in style!

What exactly do just the stage 5 axles do? Is there a torque gain besides being able to support alot of hp?

There was an s2000 that raced all motor vs supercharged s with comptech @ 10 psi and stayed 1/2 a car behind him.

Both are my friends and very good racers/drivers, both with brand new oem clutchs.

The all motor s2000 was an ap1 which had an f22 with ap1 ecu, 3" single exhaust and stage 5 axles other than that, it was bone stock f22.

The supercharged was f20 fully tuned to 325hp/185 tq @ 10 psi.

How could both cars off a roll be so close?

Any ideas?

Any inputs?

Thanks.
Dude, I already posted the story and the video. It was more than 1/2 a car and I'm only 6-7 psi. The NA car has a AP1 ecu and exhaust cam as well. It is by far the fastest NA S2000 I've ever run.

Original post:https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=572787

Vid of the runs, including the OP's car: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbNIq6g6mGE

PS - I'm the SC car, I'm not retarded. We were both in 2nd gear and are both competent enough to do a 45mph roll race. I just dyno'd 325, 201. The car is fine, no slipping belt or boost leak. I've spanked on plenty of cars lately you can see those in my many other threads I post here. If you think my "tuner sucks", well I tuned it myself so you're probably right

In your video, it looks like you beat him much more then 1/2 a car.


"fastest" NA or not, hes not putting more then ~230 to the ground. I have yet to see a NA s2k dyno to the WHEELS (not hubs) more then maybe high 230's except ones with crazy 2.5L+ stroker motors.



Regardless, the numbers simply don't work. There is no way the same car with nearly 100 less horsepower can stay even ALL things being equal. I guess once you factor in driver, traction, Vtec fluid , etc, things change.
