Although still torqueless the blower makes acceleration comparable. I use the LS1 as the benchmark for quick. Luckily, the GF has witnessed the benchmark from both sides of the equation. . .

Welcome to a cool V8 guy...I have met a lot that dog our cars due to the 4cyl japanese engine (some with stock LT1's had to remove their foot from their mouth 
) I'm a huge fan of the LS1 T/A's....beautiful sound! Z06 will be my next car also, once the prices settle (heard they are charging excessive amounts over sticker).BTW bought my S because it's about the closest thing to a street legal go cart (besides the elise which is just too bare bones)
Regarding the S2k, it looks like a blast to drive. Like you said like a go-kart for the street. I have always liked the way they look from the direct front too, I like the way the fenders flare out. Driving around in a FI one must be an absolute rip.

Yeah...I was refering to the new model's price guaging that is occurring. I think an 02 would be sufficient though (400 stock horses that can easily be bumped, so I may look into either new one or mod an old one)

Hmmm.. 13.3? What should a SC'd s2K with supporting mods and high boost run?

Its very refreshing to see a down to earth V8 owner. I wish all muscle car owners were open-minded like this.
