Chem... Anyone who races competently knows the limits of their car... your seventeen and allready on your third engine? Sure you can beat someone, but if your just pedal mashing its not really skill, its just misuse of your car.
Okay... so tell me your S2K with a f22c1 Swap... did you swap the gage to accomidate the redline limit drop to 8,000 rpm? or did you plan on blowing this engine too?

Excerpt from Honda article:

"Following criticism about a lack of low-down torque, Honda introduced a variant of the F20C engine to the North American market in 2004. Designated the F22C1, the stroke of the motor was lengthened, increasing the displacement to 2.2 L. As a result, the redline was reduced to 8,000 rpm (mandated by the longer travel distance of the pistons). T Peak torque was increased by 6%, and the F22C1 was quoted by Honda as having more torque at lower rpm than the F20C, although officially the power output remains the same between the two engines. Initially, the F22C1 was intended only for the North American market, but it was also introduced to Japan in 2006 with specified power of 242 PS (178 kW, 239 hp). The 8,000 rpm redline was one part of a criticism as labeling the the F22C1 models as less raw compared to the F20C1."

Winning a race, without destroying your car is real skill.
