How bad did you lose to the FI S2000?

Brey335i · 04-03-2011, 10:28 PM

Just because you lost to a turbocharged S2000 does not mean your car is slow lol

marv85 · 04-03-2011, 10:39 PM

S2000 is very light! Adding a turbo would really change its power-weight ratio... but anyways how bad was it? and how much HP does the S2000 have?

boom · 04-03-2011, 10:44 PM

I know a guy with a 754 whp s2k that literally spins 1000 ft in the 1/4. They don't weigh anything and can make tins of power.

754whp from an S2000

how the hell was he able to do that? well safely

snipersix · 04-03-2011, 10:55 PM

it is a honda..

Keik E92 M3 · 04-03-2011, 10:56 PM

well i guess they guy makes around 450-500whp from what they say, but i got beat by two of them.. one was faster than the other... but i was shocked we went from a dig i was ahead tell mid 2nd gear he flew past me like i was standing still lol... He beat me about 5-6 cars maybe more..

i don't a full exhaust, intake, intercooler piping etc will make my car that much faster to beat them lol..... But hey i am just venting from a losses that was not expected, reality just hit me in the face haha.

Trojan4evr · 04-03-2011, 10:58 PM

shockin330i · 04-03-2011, 11:06 PM

Wow 5-6 car length does seem like alot for sure...What do FI S2000 make to the wheels?

marv85 · 04-03-2011, 11:07 PM

UFhypzM3 · 04-03-2011, 11:12 PM

Umm, so? S2000s stock put down 240hp if I'm not mistaken. Add a turbo with all supporting mods, and 400+ are very easy. Plus they are a lot lighter than the BMW. Learn to respect faster cars.

That's what I was going to say

I know a handful of S2k ranging from 230WHP to 500WHP stock motors. Car can pack a punch when FI is added.

Also need to remember S2k weighs about 2900 lbs at best.

I have 3 friends with s2000's one making 500whp, another 740whp, and 954 whp! These cars are no joke!

Yes, and DP. I guess i need to take it to the track to see what it can really do...

FrankiE90 · 04-04-2011, 03:58 AM

did u check under the hood...

justsayn - u nver know.

jjurroz · 04-04-2011, 10:17 AM

The best way to really know is to do a pbox 60-130 and/or at the drag strip. Racing against other cars on the street is a poor way for judging performance.
