just make sure the car is stock..
cause the k-series and f-series are very mod friendly.... they also rev higher
i agree, as those cars do have a decent weight advantage&237hp stock. where are you racing?

You won't have a problem. Its just like the RX-7's. They lack low end torque, I think the s2k's have like 180-190 ft/lbs. They are just rev-happy lightweight cars.

Those cars are already tweeked to death from the factory. CAI and exhaust help them, butnot nearlyenough to keep up with a Mach. It would take a turbo or supercharger to get one into Mach territory.

I guess it would depend on how much boost and what turbo it was, butmost likely, if you run into a S2000 with a turbo, it's going to be done up in a way to mop the floor with a Mach. They say it's not hard to get 400rwhp out of a turboed S2K.

i wouldnt mind a turbo for mine, but i intend on breaking in to the 12's with nothing more than basic bolt ons

Race him for pinks. So that when you win you can have that car also.

You will. 12s are not hard to come by with bolt-onMachs. Hell, with DRs alone, you could be all in the 12s.I feel sure I'll knock down 2 tenths with these new tires I have now, considering how bad I was spinning before.If all goes as planned, I'll get a 12.8x out of it.

Turbos just run into way to much money, not to mention everything you have to reinforce to hold it.
