I'm fairly sure Honda spends quite a bit more on F20C engines than this engine costs. That engine has a 9000rpm redline, which is pretty difficult to do reliably on a road car. They had a ton more money to play with for the S2000, so it's perfectly reasonable to expect it to be faster than the FT. 12 years of development can't beat economics and physics.
