VTEC kicks in... in fulll throttle (WOT)...Eugene said:How is the petrol consumption btw?
I agree with Izari - long haul = 35mpg or about 8L/100kms , mixed driving = 27mpg or 10L/100kms. But 5 to 10mpg in attack mode Sure you haven't a hole in the tank ? :lol:
turbo doesnt go well with the S2000... why spoil the great high revving N/A engine?

Let me guess , 2nd hand jet engine :lol:
I suppose by putting a blower on the engine , chipping it , upgrading the brakes and suspension and dampers , and moving the engine about a foot behind the front axle to match the S2000's 50/50 weight distribution , plus substantially stiffening the chassis , I'd still take the Honda 8)
I really wouldn't end mess with the engine directly though like turbo/supercharge/chipping etc as such mods generally requires engine remapping and alot of skill. and I don't know or trust anyone enough to ' practice ' their skill on my machine
do you agree that for 25k dollars less, you could spend the extra money on better things and still learn the basics of taking care of a turbo?
regular boxter > s2000

Regular 2.7L Boxster is the reason why there's the 3.2L Boxster S because it's totally inadequate on all counts in relation to performance compared to rivals and especially the S2000.
As regards 0-60 times the Boxster S and S2000 are so close I'd hate to live on the difference. The German blitzwagon though has to resort to much extra cc's and 2 extra cyclinders to face off the little Honda :lol:

yes... thats cuz the porsche has leather and comfort features that a normal daily driver would need...
the s2000 is basically seat + steering wheel + pedals + shifter... nothing other than that...
and on a rough road ... the s2000 is as uncomfortable as my boot up ur ass with out lubrication...
yeah you get the point... i test drove the s2000 like 10 times... and i whiped it around plenty enough to know that daily driver = PORSCHE
weekend auto-cross/light track car = S2000...
heavy track use... Porsche 911S
