well the C55 has only some mild mods on it.... I think it would be different if it was running a supercharger

i would expect that easily, s2k's weigh like 1000+ pounds less than a c55 does, has a rev line to nearly 9k, and has a vortech supercharger, lol. my cousins integra type r with jus a cold air intake/cams and a header used to smoke gt mustangs all day long. gotta love top end power, he used to rev to 9800 on a new ecu.

Man it looked pretty good from the start until the top end where the Honda's motor always shine.

What is the CD of the C55's anyways. I hope it's like a .30 or under.

I used to own a supercharged S2K and those cars are no joke... Most fun car I've ever owned...the high redline never gets old.

BTW, the S2K is not 1000lbs less than a C55. S2K weighs in at over 2800lbs.

Nope. A stage II + C32 will eat a non-supercharged C55 for breakfast.

I meant if it had been a C32 racing the S2000.

This is what I was refering to. The guy was saying his S2000 was pulling mid 12's. From the way it took off from the C it was pretty fast.

Boost+vtec FTW. Too bad FI and Honda's don't get along too well long term.

To bad C55 doesn't hold it's value on the long run. I will be getting an Honda civic to play with here shortly.

I'm not taking anything away from the S2 - it is sweet, but simply not a match for the kompressor AMG's

My little bro has an S2 with some sick exhaist systme that he bought in Japan....but he is soon parting with it... to inherit my C - cause I am moving on....
