what the rx8 needs it more torque
honda got smart and upped the s2000 to 2.2 liters in 2004, because they werent doing as well with the 240 HP and no TQ. they only gained about 9 ft/lbs i think (making it about even with the h22a btw). and im sure that TQ increase is going to have a profound effect on s2000 track performance
