At 3500rpm, FR-S is making 90hp. At 3900rpm, S2000 is making 100hp, 11% more. The S2000 is therefore putting 11% more torque to the wheels at 39.5mph in 3rd gear.
Yup.

Not exactly what I was looking for. I'll put together some torque to the wheels x rpm charts later when I have some time. Still suspect the FR-S will come out on top under 3500 rpm, even if the S2000 has shorter gearing.
