Their baseline dyno is from another S2000; not the same one that they did the mods on. That really throws into doubt the gains on the first mod - which was the exhaust.

OK, a dead standard car puts out about 152hp at the wheels.
The article has been discussed thoroughly before, and it is 100% pure unadultered bullchit.
