you'd be faster (and better at the track) with a stage-one (under ten pounds of boost and quick spool) turbo, and keep the best-handling character of the S, imo. other things you get to keep are: overhead cams, VTEC, low frictional losses, 50/50 weight-distribution, low polar moment of inertia, true and advanced engineering---you get the picture.

If it was a 6mt. Id put my bid in. 16k for that car is not bad. 300Hp and 300tq s2000. Must be a blast.

I have access to some free Corvette engines. I wish that I had a spare S2000 to put one into and the cash to fix it all up. Some dreams just stay dreams...
I would want a 6-speed manual, just like the S has, though. No auto, if I could have a choice.

Sorry, guys. The engines weren't mine to begin with. They were offered to me a few months ago, but the deal changed and then I was told this week that they are not even Vette engines. My friend who's ex-husband left them behind, doesn't really know what they are. I thought I had a deal, too.
