I wonder this; do the owners of cars with little engines know that when they modify them, increase the horsepower, that then they can change the final drive ratio of their axle or transaxle to make their cars top speed faster? I mean they talk about nitrous and turbos all the time, but I never hear them talk about changing their final drive gear ratios.

Nope not on a circuit track, a supercharged S2k on a track will do laps on a turboed S2k because with a supercharger it will always be in the power band especially when taking corners , u will have trouble with a turboed one on a track because boost lag n the unpredictable nature of when boost kicks in will b bad for taking corners

[@operatoncreation6396]

The s2000 is a very strange first sports car, it was my first and I had mine for about 2 weeks before I spun it on an on ramp... the snap is so fast, it really put's your skills as a driver into perspective. that being said, top down, driving at 3am on the highway is maybe a memory that stands with my first born.

[@justsomerandomguyman]

I own an AP2 and think this is a cool car and all, but 2 things: 1. I know the car can be fast for drag racing, but I personally appreciate a well built track (circuit, time attack, or even autocross) setup much more. Building an S2000 just for driving in a straight line is kind of lame considering how well the car can corner. It's a short wheelbase front-mid engine roadster with fast steering and double wishbone suspension all around. It's designed to take corners. 2. Sticking with the stock transmission with 600hp seems pretty amateur. Many people feel that the transmission, as nice as it feels to shift and as great as it is at stock power or with small forced induction setups, is not reliable even at 400-450hp with turbo setups due to the torque. It's definitely not going to last long at 600hp. Even the CD009 swap that a lot of people use is known to be fairly mediocre. When you're pushing 500-800hp, you should really be looking at something like a BMW DCT or a Samsonas dogbox (H-pattern or sequential) to really take advantage of the power and really have something reliable that you can hammer on.
