Not the one coming here! It only puts out 227 hp (15s)... The JDM one is pretty quick though.

The JDM Lancer is pretty quick though, as well as some other JDM cars. Any one here that has done any racing knows about the Supras/RX7s/VR4s/AWD Eclipse GS-Ts...

Its all about trade-offs....

I can hear the sound of snapping metal all the back here in CT.

Actually honda axels are not that strong, but you know about that stock axled SE-R running 12's for a couple of years now on stock axles. not bad for a 4 banger

I thought a turbo Eclipse/Talon would beat a 5.0. Oh well...just out of curiosity, does anyone know what an Eclipse/Talon runs out of the box?

Super Street import magazine got a 15.6 out of the stock GSX and a 15.8 out of a stock GSR.

I am not sure why some of you guys think the S2000 has no room under the hood. I have a pic of one w/ a big *** blower (at least as big as a Novi 2000) and it fits so nice it looks like it was meant to be there. I have a pic of it, It was put together by Comptech. Very sweet ride.
