my cousin has an 06 S2000 and got it dyno'd for a base run. Bone stock it makes 203hp to the wheels.

yea numbers like this is common on AP2's....there always around 215whp...and from what i know AP's do well with better quailty parts not your standard civic bolt ons...the AP's are well bulit there pretty muched maxed out from factory....plus S2000's arent all about power in case people forgot....though i always thought since the AP2's havea little more torque with low compression pistons and a small decent turbo more power can be achieved but im not power hungrey...my 2 cents

Man all this is very intresting. having the extra 1000 rpm on the old models looks a lot sweet than the newer models.

wow i hope its not true

my S2000 is bone stock motor-wise and I just dyno'd it to get a baseline before I turbo it in a couple months. here's the dyno of mine and my buddy's. my buddy has intake, header, and test pipe tuned with AEM, we're putting a supercharger kit on it this weekend so I'll post the new dyno in a week or two

anyway if you look at my dyno round it off and it's 205whp, that's only a 14.5% drive train loss based on a 240hp stock number. that's really good compared to a lot of other RWD cars, most are about 20% lower at the wheels from the advertised flywheel number. I think part of it is manufacturer's lying to advertise better numbers but Honda doesn't do that. the Mazda RX-8 used to advertise 250hp until they got involved in a class action lawsuit because guys were only dynoing 190whp, now they advertise 232hp

215whp on a bone stock F22, not on the dyno we've been using always look at the dyno manufacturor when comparing numbers as they all give slightly different numbers. Dynojets are the standard (since they invented the dyno ) but they even vary slightly between models. Dynapacks are the worst since they try to estimate flywheel HP, guys love to post those dyno's since they'll be exagerated compared to any other dyno.

anyway the S2000 motor is an awesome motor, just looking at what guys are doing with turbo kits and running 400whp - 500whp with nothing done to the motor or just a headgasket to lower the compression is pretty cool.
