How much horse power can a S2000 reach to the limit?

MattG · 10-12-2003, 08:29 PM

When does an s2000 stop being an s2000?

If we are talking just about the car body itself you could always swap the engine with something completely different.

If you are talking about the s2000 engine, is a turbo/supercharged version still considered the same engine? How about changing the capacity of the engine (eg 2.2 litre)

Essentially the question of how much horsepower can you get by starting with an s2000 engine and modifying it always remains to be seen.
All somebody can say at the moment is how much horsepower the "current most powerful" s2000 has. You also have to consider how long you want your engine to last be doing these mods, does being able to make 1000HP for 30 seconds before your engine blows up count for anything?

What may be developed in the future always is a mystery to me.
Who would have thought 5-10 years ago that you would be able to get 1000 horsepower out of a 3 litre engine (eg Skyline GTR or even a Silvia).

Check some of these links to see what has been done already.

Relatively minor mods here give a good improvement:
