Well, the most recent stock S2K puts down 210hp @ 8000 rpm and 146lb-ft @ 6400. A stock 1G puts down 195hp @ 6000 rpm and 203lb-ft @ 3000. The only reason we have more torque is because of when the turbo hits, then it raises fairly well throughout the small rpm range(compared to the S2K). And VTEC Hondas keep making power to redline, DSM's usually don't.

Just about any day of the week a stock S2K wouldn't have much a problem with walking away from a stock 1G, especially on the freeway. And the S2K stock runs the 1/4 in about 14.4. You would need to open up the factory restrictions on a DSM to get that, then of course if you added the minor bolt ons it would be a whole different game. For a NA four cylinder the S2K is as good as it gets, especially being overengineered as it is.

In summary, the S2K isn't just another Honduh, it rocks. Throw a Jackson Racing on there and there you go. Have fun.
