Default are s2000 fast?

my friends said yes, s2k are fast around corners but going stright, they're slow. Stock having 240HP. Like 300zx, supra, rx7, 3kGT, 350z, G35, evo, sti...all of those cars they have turbo and could upgrade it more. While the S2000 is a N/A. Adding turbo would harm the engine because reving at 9K is too high and adding more PSI into the engine would probably cause a blow up or something. Supercharging it is cool i guess but I would stick with turbowise for more Horsepower. So for conclusion, for you rich guys who have a lot of money.. How much money does it take inorder for your car to reach 400 to 500 horse power? Just curious? thanks

i knew you guys would react like this...
since i live in north dakota, there arn't any curves or mountains I can't do corners or drifts... So we usually do drags and I really like this car. I just want to know how much it takes to get this car fast that's all...If i'm being a dumbass then excuse me..

The 4.57 final drive gears is an option.
