Re: im curious if my car could beat a s2000

Ok buddy, here's the stats on your car...
Brakes, Power 4 Wheel Disc
2 Wheel Rear Drive
Engine, 1.9L 4 Cylinder 90 hp Gas
Defroster, Rear
Seatbelts, Front Shoulder
Transmission, 5 Speed Manual OD

That's 90hp! "Select few cars"? What's the criteria, they need to have four wheels? Don't mean to flame but know your own car and others before you ask silly questions. 90hp, vs, 240hp... That's a 150hp gap.

Damn, 90 hp? That's alot, Your car must haul some serious ass. , put 5-10k in your car and you MIGHT be able to run even with one..

You can't be serious can you?

No, your car won't even be able to touch an S2000 without a lot of work. Stock for stock my pig of an Eagle Vision TSi will take your car.

Re: im curious if my car could beat a s2000

Dudes that is for the N/A model. This guy has the turbocharged model. I believe your car has 130+ horsepower. You need mods just to keep up. You are looking to challenge a car that has 180+ rwhp. Get a catback exhaust, larger turbo, and an intercooler. Till then hope that the driver really sucks.

If he does have the turbo model then his car should run nearly 15 seconds flat. Still not fast enough to beat an S2000, unless they are afraid to rev it high.. which I doubt will be the case.

Re: im curious if my car could beat a s2000

The "Handling by Lotus" sticker won't help you in a drag race. Congrats on owning a rare turbo model. AS for S2000s, any stock '01 Trans Am can beat 'em no problem... they're not the world's fastest car.

Anyone else here get the feeling that maybe this thread was just a joke?? i mean the gap between the two cars is pretty damn obvious unless he was just joking.

Re: im curious if my car could beat a s2000

By the way, the Impulse turbo doesn't run almost a 15 flat. It runs more like a 16.5. That's gonna need quite a bit more boost to drop off the extra 2 seconds needed to take the S2K.
