As for building engines with aftermarket in mind, I don't think Honda really cares. If they were desirous of building cars with the intent of the owner's modifying them, I don't think they would've made the new Civic larger, heavier, and with a flat rear floor (and thus lower exhaust pipes, just ready to be scraped).

The S2000 is running with 2 liters, so low torque numbers aren't that surprising. I would assume (without any basis) that with a 9,000 RPM redline low end torque problems could be averted by not letting the RPM's drop.
