Redline04 is an unknown quantity at this point
well I went to the acura dealer today and not a single Type-S on the lot
Wanted to test drive one for comparison. So I went to the honda dealer to look at the S2000 cause they are having a 299 lease special with $3500 down. So told him I want one for $350mo with only $1500 down (coming from my trade in). He said they should be able to do that, but they need to appraise my car first. Well I am waiting for my new fuel line coming monday and changing everything back to stock if I have the time within the next week. Then heading back up there and hopefully driving off in a new S2k. Insurance will be a bitch for the next few months but should drop to around $225 a mo when I turn 25 in JAN. The Saturn would be more economical, but that S2000 is so damn clean and no mods are really needed, except maybe a gear swap like S2000man down the road. I dunno I keep changing my mind , but right now I am 95% on the side of S2k, but insurance is weighing on my mind still.

that is what i thought. the ecotec 2.2l is a good platform for a boosted application. they can handle a good amount of boost with the stock bottom end. there are uys on j-body.rog that are getting good #'s from them. 1 for instance that i posted earlier was producing 220whp @9psi. the bottom end can handle a bit more than that. with some tuning i can definately see 250-280.
