Before we get into big flaming war here, I would like to take this opportunity to remind EVERYONE what the original question was. I believe it has been satisfactorily answered but it seems a few people have this need to answer a question that was never asked and have rambled on to a different tangent, thus creating some "friction".
It is the age old problem of one bunch of guys who have actually done some things to the S2000 and post about their experience and knowledge vs another bunch of guys who can't accept this first hand experience and tend to read more than they should and listen to second hand information from people they ought not be listening to.
ps. Has anyone noticed yet that the original poster has not been heard from since? This horse has died and the flies have almost finished their business. Put down your sticks. The beating can stop now. If the tangent is what some folks want, maybe a new thread should be started. At least there, the topic can be stuck too?
