Have you seen the one where the figure skater chick kicks the hockey chumps but in a game of scramble?? Same difference here.

Oh oh oh... When Elvis Studgeko (sp hehe) Kicked Eric Lindros's ass.

But I dunno about the power.... Check out this K20A2 powerd machine. All NA

Please take note to his "Dynapack 242.4whp / 169.9wtq - Dynojet 220.4whp / 158wtq (Actual) 216.1whp / 154.9wtq (SAE Corrected)
" numbers

Have you ever seen a figure skate win the Stanley Cup???

Your comparisons don't seem to be related...the only thing in common between Elvis and Eric is that they both wear skates, but Elvis beat him up via Karate, not playing hockey....

So with a list about as long as my leg, he gets 12 - 15 hp more than a stock S2000....impressive...NOT.

With all the $$$ he sunk into it, he could have bought an S2000 and probably a turbo or SC and get around 300 whp....

Stock S2K = 240HP crank - 15/20% = 204/192 WHP

So thats about 20 more WHP. Minus all the R&D (which is paid by sponsers anyhow) he only has about 8G CDN into it (up to date again minus all the R&D)

So for compairson, You can transform a stock rsx that can do the 1/4mile in 13.154s, hold higher G forces on the skid pad all for 8G over the sticker of 31K. Still almost 10G cheaper than an S2000.

Now you can TC or SC a Stock s2k for what 8GCDN and obtain 300WHP... or TC an RSX for the same price and get over 400WHP See Here again still cheaper than an s2k.

What's not impressive about that??

EDIT: It's ok to be in denial

2002+ S2000s are dynoing between 201 and 205 hp, a simple exhaust CAN (depending on the manu) add another 3 or 4...so the gap closes again. A Toda header is supposed to gain 10hp...there 2 mods and we are at the same whp, but I bet my gearing is better and my redline is higher....

I'm not in denial, I just view there is more to a car than just hp or torque....

So I ask you a question...why were you considering trading in the RSX for an S2000?

EDIT - BTW, I am not hacking on the car...I think it's a great car, I just prefer the S2000 and the F20C.
