I was actually refering to Hams2000...he did claim that he was going to see 265whp...but he never actually showed anything of it...and 237-240 close enough for me...

Ummm... where? Do you have a link to posts by these guys? The highest NA HP that I've seen from an S2000 is 237rwhp (Hams2000, back in the day). I'd like to see the parts list for anybody making 240 or better (on a dynojet, not dynapack).

BTW, you should be starting to get up there in NA hp as well...P&P, Cams, Header, VAFC (not installed...but when you do)...

are you going to dyno yours?

Never argue with a fool, because onlookers will not be able to tell which one's the idiot.

I argued for like 45 minutes about how a Mustang GT will beat a Civic in a drag race. This guy would not shut up about how Mustangs just don't "hook-up". Funny how he'd never back-up his words though

Then he'd cower at the thought of racing my S2000. You can say what you want, but that Mustang and my car were dead even in a drag race. I really felt like an idiot after arguing for so long, my time just vanished.

My last dyno (before the header was installed) had me about 12hp over stock. I probably won't hit the dyno again till the exhaust is in. I'm guessing once I get the exhaust on and VAFC re-tuned, I should be making about 25-30hp over stock. If I ever get an EMS, I should be snuggling up to the 240whp mark... but it may be a while. I don't know if we have anyone around here that can tune an EMS.

I have a friend who loves German and other performance cars. He used to make fun of S2000 and when he finally drove my car for a day, he admitted "Damn, wish my car handles like this" "Damn wish my car has transmission this smooth" "Damn, 9grand redline...wish mine has it"

Funny how people talks smack when they know nothing about the car.

Never argue with an idiot, they will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
