Volvoboi24 Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 it's like the S2000what, 240HP?but 162 tqthat's poo!it's still a nice car to drive though..←Torque isn't everything, I dyno'd in at 295ft-lb of torque, but an S2000 with just 162 torque will stay within a car length or two at the end of the 1/4.... that car pulls very hard in the high end.

maiku Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 i wasn't bashing the S2000just "vtec" in generalS2000 works because it is very lightbut if that engine was put in , say, a TL, would it perform just as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Actually, my dad was looking at the TL as his new car. He turned it down and looked at Saab Viggen 9-3. He turned that down too and got a 2003 BMW 325XI wagon......stick of course. He gave me his 98 S70 and, believe me, it was difficult for him. He loved the car but now it's mine and I'm thrilled. My only regret and his was it's not a turbo. What I would give to get a hold of a T5 or at least it's parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
