Ok I won't ban you just yet.... but let's play a lil game.....

Explain to me why a S2000 making 290HP and weighing 2,756lbs can barely beat(13.9's vs. flat 14) a 99+ Mustang 5-speed making 260HP and weighing a portly 3,400lbs?

So your talking 290HP in a 2,756lbs car vs. 260HP in a 3,400lbs car and it can only eek by on a few tenths with 30 more hp and 600lbs lighter?

Also let's note the S2000's larger price tag.....


I await my answers....

more torque, and the s2000 is still a way smaller engine which was my point

[TheStang00]

ok well u were just proven wrong... the honda engine is half the size but not equal in performance obviously, and its more expensive, those were ur two main points. also your compairing a dohc engine with very new technology to a pushrod engine thats been around for atleast 40 years, GTStang just close this thread this guy wont give it up no matter how many people prove him wrong

What was your point? It was and you can look to remember what you wrote. "that Honda makes an engine 1/2 the size and equal performance(and its less than or equal to a GT mustang's price)"

Ok so tell you what put an S2000's 290HP motor in a GT Stang and put a GT 4.62v in and S2000 and tell me what car will be faster? If the motors are almost equal performance they should be about the same ET right?

Or tell you what how about an S2000's vs a 03-04 MACH1. They are pretty much the same price and you still have your close to 2:1 cu ratio and both are N/A. So a Mach1's low 13's vs. S2000's high 13's. I'm confused I thought Honda made equal performance with 1/2 the cubes why is the MACH1 almost a second faster?

I'm not seeing the equal performance here? Please explian?

You may not, but I'm getting pretty close to it. I have not touched the ban stick in a while and I'm itching to use it.

Ok, I'm a bit late as the mods have kicked into full gear, but I was going to say the Torque is what makes the difference.

Even on my Relatively stock 5.0L with 2.73 gears, I get Honda guys going "Wow, that guy can take off"

I can't wait to get the New GT40P Heads and 3.73 Gears I've been wanting (hopefully for the Summer) then only the top of the line Ricer Buckets will be a match.

nah not top of the line... if i had an extra like 2 grand my 'lude would beat your car in a quarter by like 1 second. mmm forced induction

[TheStang00]

umm ok... if i had an extra 2 grand... thats exactly the point, he doesnt need the extra two grand and also what if he had an extra two grand? it wouldnt even be close, thats a really weak argument
