I think that has been posted before. Personally, I would do anything to a race engine since it will be rebuilt more frequently. Aggressive break-in is synonymous for abuse. Definately not for an S2000.

 

Asura, he's not talking about race only engines. Did you read the article?

Can you dispute what he says with any kind of knowledge of engines? I'd love to hear what UL has to say about this. I don't think he chimed in the last time.

I've heard stories of the factory where the NSX, S2k and Insight are built...

I've heard that each new NSX is taken out on a test track and test driven fairly hard to make sure everything is correct with it. I'm not sure about the S2000, but it's built at the same factory. This is why most cars have between 5 and 10 miles on them when you first get them because they are run through some kind of test course before being put in the lot or on the truck. I've seen first hand how the people doing the testing drive these cars, hard...

According to this website that's pretty good news.

 

Welcome to three years ago. This has been going around the ls1.com forum and corvetteforum.com forever.

Personally I'll stick with what the Honda engineers say. Why beat the piss out of a brand new car for 5 extra horsepower.

 

I haven't seen this article posted here. Must have missed it.

Those of us who have been around the s2000 for over 2 years remember that there were lots of differing opionions on this subject.

I wonder what UL thinks of this article as he is probably one of the very few that are capable of answering to this type of article.

 

328 lbs. why?

 

I wonder if the different material in our cylinder walls makes a difference in this?

 

If you went to the link, and actually read the entire webpage, your question would be answered.
