$67,000 usd?!?! I'll have to pass. CF itbs, amazing. a perfect project for a better nsx or rl.

 

No thank you.

 

Maybe I will pick it up and build a bar stool racer.

 

anyone buy it yet? j/k. That price is crazy.

 

too late, I need tissue!



preach!!

 

LS7 > that overpriced crap

 

A. who asked about price?

B. Cool factor.

C. I don't think the LS7 can rev to 18,000 rpm or whatever the mugen can.

All and all it's just a nice fantasy thing. nobody is going to go buy one and drop it into an S2000 anytime soon.

LS7 Torque Mugen Rev.

 

Mugen V8 > LS7

 

What's the point of revving an engine to 18,000 when the LS7 makes the same power at 7000 rpm?

You'd think Mugen out of all tuners would be able to extract a little more than 500 hp out of that v8, especially one that costs about ENTIRE PRICE of a C6 Z06 car.

LS7 = ~$20k (if I'm not mistaken)

Spend a few grand on headers, straight pipe exhaust, cam, tune, and you'll have an engine that will dominate your beloved Mugen v8.

I love Honda as much as the next s2k owner, but please, I can't believe people would sackride this $70k engine that makes the same amount of power as one that costs less than half of that just because it's a "Honda."
