I would definitely like some exhaust. Not because I want to be loud, but because once you are in the power band intake + exhaust = BETTER throttle response. You can hear the engine, you can feel it better because now the throttle is more "crisp".

For whoever dosn't see this, you are too ignorant for your own good.

700 dollars for a smile on my face everytime I drive my car, better throttle response, better butt dyno, completely worth it.

300 dollars for an SRI to get that SNARL from a flat 4 in NATURALLY aspirated form.

to realize I didnt spend 8000 bucks on a Turbo system and still get spanked in auto-x and that the car will drift just as well going down hill..

priceless

CAPS ARE CRUISE CONTROL STRAIGHT TO COOL!!! YOU WIN TEH INTARWEBZ!!!

But seriously, I'm not sure I'd give up the S for this. I've been thinking about having both. Make this thing my daily instead of a garage queen as I've previously stated I was going to do. Who knows at this point. I know I don't.

Also, it's not all about horse power. If I wanna compare **** sizes, I'll just compare ****s straight up. K?

The SK2 is obviously superior to this car because it has a ragtop.

Maybe because its a new car, will have a nice warranty (what a warranty means to you I have no idea lol), should weigh 200-400lbs less!, and will have a sweet deep engine note as compared to the s2000.

A nice 6 speed so no compromise there, 4 seats, better MPG, more torque.

Now I bet the S creates a bond over sometime, but i can't imagine the bond i will have with my car if its a FT-86!!!
