These things give STi's/Evo's trouble stock for stock and simple mod's like this make a huge difference. No idea how S2000 owners think they can pull on these from a roll. I got slaughtered by one when my Evo was near stock.

test drove a MS3 once...I really wanted to like it, but the early power dive killed it for me. They should have designed it to be able to pull hard to at least 7 grand, even if that meant a bit less torque/HP in the midrange. It's a sport compact, not a diesel U-Haul truck

if MS3 owners didn't care about low/midrange torque they would have bought a Honda. Not everyone wants an 8000+RPM screamer as their daily driver. So they could have made the head breathe better and put a bigger turbo on it, kill the drivability of the car and made it produce that kind of torque to 6500RPM then it would be even more expensive, not a lot of usable torque in the lower rev range and we would have a 350 horsepower FWD hatch.
