Default S2000 Power

Well, I thought i'd go and do some nosing around and see what other tricks people pull out to get gains on their S no matter how small.

Turns out that an F22C with e-Manage, J's manifold, GReddy 70R pipe, and an Injen intake makes......

247WHP!

So I held the and wanted an explanation.

Turns out that the S has only 12-15% transmission losses in the USA.

Wow!

But it's interesting how they change the door lock and they somehow gain 10whp!

maybe its an Imperial US measurement issue??...US gallons are smaller than Imperial gallons so maybe US horses are smaller than Imperial horses?

US dynos are balls, i think they measure at the crank or whatever it is (not the wheels) and then just use their trasmission losses thye like
