No, it's 8000. Same as my car.

They upped the displacement and lowered the power band. Basically just gave it a broader torque curve with peak power happening 1000 rpms sooner. The torque was bumped from 15x to 16x. Don't recall the exact amount, but that's just about all they did on the engine side.

its a drivers race, people on s2000 forums will argue non stop about witch one is faster, but they are equal.

the problem with the s2000 people is that many of them think that the s2000 is this amazing car...and while it is a fairly fast car, for a 4 cylinder, ive never been all that impressed. its like honda wanted to make a miata that guys are comfortable driving..and viola! the s2000!

YES! had some fun on my way to work that's actually worth posting ...i was working later than usual tonight (just got in) so the highway was completely deserted. from pretty much out of nowhere i see bright blue halo lights come up and start tailing me. i switched lanes to let him come up next to me, it was a bright yellow s2000, so i gave the guy a rev, he must've tought i was flooring it cuz that's exactly what he did ...i was going about 60 and by the time i reacted my front bumper was about to his rear wheel, i jammed it in 3rd and put the throttle to the floor. i caught up a little and we stayed exactly side by side for a couple seconds then i put it in fourth and started gaining a little...we continued going at it until about 125-130 at wich point i had about a car on him and he shut off. i slowed down and waited for him to get next to me and gave him the 3 honks (we were going about 70)... this time we both floored it at the same time, i started pulling again (maybe half a car) and for some reason he let off a couple seconds into it, i waited for him again to get another shot but he wouldn't go[8D] i gave him a thumbs up, he was a good sport and did the same, except he had a bitter look on his face [sm=smiley36.gif] ...still pretty darn good for a little N/A 4cyl, all in all it was a fun little run. anyone know if these are faster from a stop then a roll? ...i'm wondering what the outcome would've been like if we went from a light.

Dang...I just saw this thread....HC Crazy horse....You must have alot of mods on that 5.0........Those S-2000's are equal to the 99-04 GT's in the 1/4 mile .....They have no torque but 240 horsepower which comes on at about 8000 rpm........They can move....Good kill

no i don't have alot of mods actually... just MAC headers, MAC catted H, MAC CAI and magnaflow cat-back... stock for stock i think the notch is about the same as a new edge.
