After 40 years of spending money on go-faster bits like exhausts, intakes & polished cylinder heads, it has taken until this week-end to realise that superb handling allowing faster cornering, perfect linear stability on poor surfaces & eradication of any tendancy for the back end to step out, is the answer to making speedier progress in a Honda S2000.

Thanks to a certain company that so many before me have paid tribute to, I now have a faster car, already proved in some back to back drives. In fact it is the car I assumed I was getting upon its purchase.

So no apologies for yet another mention of - Center Gravity.

For serious NA improvement you 'll need 2.2L stroker kit + AEM EMS = about 235 whp
Maybe more with good intake, exhaust manifold and single exhaust.
