exactly...what engines are people comparing the FA20 to? To me the most comparable engine is the F20C...but the S2000 was a 30K+ car almost 2 decades ago and it isn't dramatically any faster than a twin...they virtually have the same amount of wheel torque. And in order to fit that engine and have a great balance, the hood had to be long AF, only got 2 seats and a small trunk..the twin's packaging has to be respected..
