You know, I had a nice long reply trying _once again_ to politely communicate how an engine can gain power, or how testing practices differ, but you know what, it doesn't matter.

AFAIC, many of you are living in a dream world.

The longer the replies get, the more ridiculous this thread becomes...

considaring how many S2000's you have tested, I should believe you right? and of those how many were the 04 F22C's?
I am not asking you to believe anything I say. All I'm asking is that UL be a little less 100% in his claims.

UL has been a great member of this board and has contributed more than either of you as far as I am concerned.

Why does it matter to you enough to debate the issue? You own what you own, go drive it.

I no longer doubt the numbers provided by UL.

I would appreciate your explanation of how the 04 makes the increased hp and torque that it produces. I'm still suprised that they were able to make as much power as they have. Would strenghtened materials allow the same engine to pull just as strong to a higher rev limit? What fuel mapping and timing issues were you referring to that could yield more torque down low?

I'm also eager to see your appraisal of the car in terms of real world acceleration and handling. Too bad you haven't been able to change the alignment. I had mine altered slightly, mostly adding -1.1 front camber from -.05. Car is quicker to respond, though not quite as eager to drive in a straight line.

I really like this board...really I do. However, I can't for the life of me understand why some people refuse to believe that the 04 MAY just be better in some areas (and maybe worse in others). It somehow feels like a "who's d!ck is bigger" contest. Immature, at best.

So you are dragging this on and on simply because you like to debate? Wow... I thought I spent too much time here...
