my friend has an honda S2k and he went out of town for a week and now he as a supercharger in it and he wants to race me....I raced him before but i new i was gonna win now he says he will smoke me...should i wait and get some mods done....the reason why i am askin is becouse this kid will never let it go that he beat me.By the way ii am racing him with my (94 touring rx7)

 

with a super charger i think i would vote on him winning cause what i know about S2k's which isn't much but he should be pushin 350-400hp know. But if he sucks at driving it might not matter

 

just do it!!!

him rubbin it in that he beat you is much better than him rubbin it in that you backed out of a race.
S2000 SC wont be that fast, but if you have a healthy stock car it should be a good race.

 

i forgot to mention i am stock.

 

The s2000 from the fast and the furious was one of the first supercharged s2ks. It has 350 hp. That guy spent retarded money on that car. I doubt the one your buddy has, has as much power as that one. They put out approx. 200 to the ground stock. Say he has 275 to the wheels now..you have about 220-230 at the ground and the cars weigh about the same...you lose.

 

you need some NOS!

 

lol martini's right.. you need NAAS!!!

 

Two of the big ones, and you need them by tonight. Can he drive for ****? How bad did you beet him last time because the S2000 is supposed to run a 13.9 and you are supposed to run between a 13.6-13.9 so if you kicked his *** last time then maybe you still have a chance because you are probably the better driver. Race him.

 

Go for it! If he wants to give you **** for beating you, you can take the wind out of his sails by reminding him you were stock. If you win, you can rub his face in the fact that his "tricked" s2k just got smacked down by your stock RX.

 

and if you do lose...you can wait till ya git a few mods and then ya can REALLY kik his *** and shove it in his face. But we all got faith that you can take him down even now..hehe

 

If he just put the s/c on, he probably hasn't become acclimated to the additional power down-low. He'll probably spin through first and second gear. So give it a shot. And if he does win and wants to start talking smack about rx7s, give me a hollar. I'll drive up from West Palm and put his cute little s2k in its place.

 

...gotta love the Forum. We all stick together to defend the mighty FD.

 

I don't know much about superchargers but when I put a larger single on my old GSX I had to break it in a little before I ran the hell out of it. You say he just got it but how many miles of driving does he have behind the wheel of it now? I agree with Lost_Time that he will more than likely make an idiot out of himself and sit and spin while you go a few cars up on him. He is going to kill his clutch with that much extra HP unless the S2000's have decent clutches in them.

 

I agree ... i've talked to many s2k owners and they say from a stop you either spin or bog ... no gray area. If he's put a SC on it, he's probably only running 6psi (which is the max i've seen so far) and he's probably getting 300 flywheel at most ... that's about 250-260 rwhp ... Given that he'll prob goose it off the line and spin ... i say go for it ... make sure you get a good start and don't miss a shift and you'll have it. It'll be a close race i imagine.

 

Do yourself a favor. Get a downpipe and a catback exhaust and you'll smoke him...

 

Get a nice intake too! It'll help big time!

 

stick a banana in his tailpipe when he's not lookin' then run em'! Just a thought...sorry it's late.

 

take out the spare, passangers seat, and run a open DP then you might have a chance

 

A stock FD - bah!!! As earlier stated, get a dp and exhaust and you'll beat him. I don't think you'll be able to pull him on the highway with his Comptech. I've been over to the S2K forum and some of them run 275-305 rwhp with their S/Cs but can still only manage low to high 13s even with the S/C. I'd race him from a stop (even with you stock) and hope he either bogs or spins. Stock FDs are easy to launch so I actually think you have a chance to beat him. Get some mods and you'll run circles around him.

 

do it and let us know what happens. now!

 

if you have to ask....then don't race with it
