I would like to say this the numbers that Road and track, Car and driver are giving is info from manufacture. Not dynoed. Its been proven time and time again that srt-4 was way under rated. SRT-4's put down the manufactures numbers on the ground there have been many tests showing 210hp-225hp at the wheels. Usually in a finely tuned car 10% of the power is lost in drive train so your 240BHP (brake hp not at the wheel) = 216hp at the wheels in best scenario. I have Dyno showing 212hp at the wheel with a faulty plug and wire. So when you get old enough to drive or afford your $30,000 dream car come back and tell us how disappointed you are.

You will know how much you suck for not giving out the correct source as you GROW UP.

The S2000's 9000rpm redline is great for the track, but not on public roads. It is no fun revving up to over 7000rpm juts to get that small 153lb-ft of torque, guess why they bumped up the displacement and lowered the redline this year??
Because the lack or torque, the S2000 is 0.4sec slower to 100mph than the SRT-4 according to Road & Track.
And the S2000 has poor gas mileage.
The S2000 2.0L n/a engine needs more gas than the SRT-4 2.4L turbo.

Re: Your srt divers are all the same

Listen, i started this thread to address the srt4s community lack of truth on forums, instead you tools change the argument saying that the almighty srt 4 can beat the s2000. your just proving my points. i put the stats there to prove that the s2000 is faster. if you dolts would accutually read the start post youd see i DIDNT MIND THE SRT4 BUT MORE THAT I HATED HOW EVERYTHING WAS EXAGERATED. but no..we have to make this about how a grocery getter is soo awesome. also someone said the srt seats come from the viper...THATS THE PROBLEM even srt drivers will admit that the seats are only good for 90lb girls.
regardless the point of the thread was to point out how much crap goes on with these forums, truth wise.

You need to get your story straight kid. You want to complain about people on here that are disrespectful, not truthful, and arrogant little snot-nosed kids? If i'm not mistaken, that's exactly what YOU are. TRUTH be told, the large, LARGE majority of SRT-4 owners are much more respectful of other people and their cars, unlike most ricers who believe their hondas with light-up 5-foot exhaust tips that stick out 5 feet from the rear bumper and chrome plastic hubcaps are better than any other car on the street. Personally, i think you need to go back to whatever honda-rules-everything-else-druels forum you came from, and leave the Neon guys alone. They deal with enough stupid, arrogant hondaphiles as it is, the last thing they need is you trying to stir up more trouble. So why don't you go out, get a job like the rest of us, buy your own car, and try to grow up.

Oh, and since pretty much everybody here has posted some sort of 0-60 and 1/4-mile times, allow me to add my own. The first is from my December issue of Motor Trend, who tested the 2004 SRT-4, which adds more horsepower, a Quaife LSD, new BFG tires, and a cool new color, electric blue.

0-60mph: 5.5 seconds
1/4 mile: [email protected]
mpg(important for those of us who actually have cars): 22/30

The S2000's numbers from my August issue of Car & Driver.
0-60mph: 5.4 seconds
1/4 mile: 14.1@99mph
mpg: 20/26

As you can see, the only thing the S2000 bests the SRT-4 in, besides handling as the S2000 handles very well, is 0-60 times. And of course, anybody who knows anything about cars knows that these magazines have professionals who test these cars, and that in the real world with amatuer drivers, the SRT-4 would have the S2000 even in 0-60, since the SRT-4 is a much easier car to launch than the S2000. In the quarter, the SRT-4 is ahead of the S2000 by .1 second and 3.72mph faster. It also gets better gas mileage and has a faster top speed, which can be even faster if the governor is removed. So you can go farther faster than the S2000 as well. Face it, your beloved S2000 is outperformed by the SRT-4, a car that costs 12 grand less. And if you really wanted to beat an S2000 down into the ground, you could spend a total of around 2 grand, taken from the 12 grand that you saved in buying the SRT-4, and put 500 into the Stage 1 upgrade from Mopar to raise your horsepower and torque, effectively making it that much more faster than the S2000, and spend the remaining on a very good aftermarket performance suspension to make it handle as well if not better than the S2000. And you're still 10 grand cheaper than the S2000. And you can still haul 4 people and their luggage, too. My job is done here.

No. Actually you didn't address anything. You jumped in here talking shit before anyone said anything and you were talking about the S2k beating and SRT-4 before anyone else too. You say you hate how everything is exagerated but you're the one posting 0-60 times of 4.9 seconds for an S2k which isn't gonna happen. All the facts that were posted by the SRT-4 guys are actually truthful and from a respectable magazine. You have to face the facts here. It's a drivers race. Either car could win.
Also I know for a fact that if someone came to the S2k forum and even mentioned the word Neon you'd jump on them right away and start talking shit about them. The only guy that's been talking shit in here is you.
As far as the seats go. I am 6'1" and 170lbs and I've sat in one and happen to think that the seats are awesome. I know too that a ton of people can back me up on that.
If some neon guy posted a thread in the S2k forum titled "You S2000 owners are all the same" and started off talking shit the exact same thing would happen there as it did here.
Here's my piece of advice for you. Get a life, get a job, save some money, buy your precious S2000 and get the hell out of these forums!

Re: Your srt divers are all the same

LOL! Why are you guys even bothering with this MORON? This individual is sixteen years old, and doesn't even own an S2000. You all have ripped him (?) a new asshole time and time again, and he just doesn't get it. Case in point, 92teggsr TOTALLY trashed this guy, and all s2kfan01 could come up with was, "ha...fag". ROFLMAO

Maybe you guys just like messing with idiot trolls. In that case, carry on!

A: the reason the s2k puts out 240hp on a 2.0 is becsue it has high compression. do that with a neon and you'll get about the same thing. Put a turbo on an engine made for high compression n/a and your tost.

And about that ''dodge sucks balls''. Go race a charger or viper and see who wins. Dodge has made some great cars that will womp honda a$$ any day of the week.

I stand corrected. sorry about that.

I believe someone said it earlier that ''the srt-4 and s2000 can't be compared to one another.'' Ok fine then lets compare the viper to the s2k. Both are 2 seater convertables. someone want to put the specks up for me?
