What can you get for a $56,352$?

The car is tweaked. Honda is already guessed and checked the whole car to squeeze to 240hp out of a 2L 4CYL engine. I guess you can't complain about that though. It's just a fit and finished car.

 

Some of those parts are made to reduce weight.

Anyone know the wieght differences between the two, perferrably without the hardtop?

A brand new Corvette Z06 AND a brand new Hyundai to use as a beater!

02 Corvette Z06 405 HP and 400ft to.price 50,400.00 and a beather.

 

Subtract the $15,000 extra Mugen charges for its poor performing extreemly over priced products just to get the already lame name "Mugen" and its worth it.

 

Wasnt there a big debate, not too long ago, about wheather to modify or NOT to modify? This would be a strong case, to NOT modify, if u ask me.

If I sound bitter, its because I spend a bunch of money before I found out the few gains that'll come out of it.....IF ANY!

.....so to GTR, go stick it up your butt.....go ahead and mod your car to the nuts.....put a supercharger or whatever in your car.......most Stock S2000's will be able to keep up with it.

 

is that the mugen s2200? that was de-bored and stroked?
