Default Sweet! Want 273hp!!!!??

I guess there is a new way to get 273hp out of our engine with only 2 simple modifications. All you need in an Injen cold air pipe and a nuespeed upper stut bar and you got yourself 273hp!! It must be true because this guy did it...

I posted this as a joke. This guy has no idea what he is talking about.
He probably has less than stock in terms of hp with that hot air injen intake. And of course a strut bar doesn't add hp. I was just poking fun at this ad I found on ebay.

C'mon Brandon.....what are you talking about...... Give credit where it is due.

EVERYBODY knows that an Injen intake will give AT LEAST 308hp at the rear wheels!

(J/K)

Cheers,

Ohhh, Injen intake! I thought it said engine intake. Well, now it all makes sense.

I'm kinda skeptical about it ... Besides, it's on dyno. Proper application on road is a different situation and circumstance altogether. They produce different results ultimately. But, an injection intake ... ? I don't know.

Takashi....we're joking.... If most S2000's put out 200 hp at the rear wheels, I don't see how just an intake will provide 70+ hp!! It wouldn't even provide 20hp....MAYBE, not even 2hp!!!!!! I've even heard that the Injen intake may actually ROB the car of power, making it less than stock!

Maybe if it was connected to a Supercharger though...!!!!!
