im thinking clutch, Tires, or air filter

 

low RPM?

that would uh, be the absolute lack of torque the s2000 has.

what was the last car you drove that you're comparing it to?

 

air filter

 

heat soak.

 

 

happens to me too. its just what it seems like. on the highway your car will be at 3k+ at a constant speed and its easier to speed up. in city driving your rpm is lower and the lack of torque the s2000 has makes it feel like its being held back. but if you venture off into the 3k+ zone youll see that theres nothing holding it back except for traffic and speed limits.

 

I get the same feeling too, but the car has good days and bad days.

 

I have the same feeling, Ive now had the car for a month and im a bit dissapointed in the lack of low end power, im def gonna turbo it this winter

 

I also am a 1 month owner, and i also plan on boosting.
There is no low end at all

 

its a honda, what can you do. its a gas saving power machine.
