  • We took a break from isolation to make the trip out to Austin, Texas for Optima Batteries’ Hi-Performance Expo at the Circuit of the Americas last November. We’ll be featuring several of our favorite cars from the event so make sure you’re subscribed and getting our notifications!
    In this one we have Robert Thorne and his awesome ROCKET POWERED S2000! There’s not an actual rocket sticking out the back of it; rather, it’s the anti-lag system he built for the turbo! Join Mike Kojima as he talks to Robert about that and the rest of this awesome Honda!

    @captainobvious9188 3 роки тому +3

    I did this ten years ago and can’t find my notes - but the force of (assumed but within magnitude) cylinder pressures of 500hp out of a F20c were significantly smaller then the peak piston acceleration at 9k rpm, hence the reliable bottom end.

    • @khiemdinh842
      @khiemdinh842 3 роки тому +3

      It will shorten it for sure. Depending on how severe the anti-lag is, i.e. how high are the exhaust gas temps and for how long . There is a reason WRC cars would change turbos every event.

      nope. The interior looks like full race car, it has a manual sequential, and the suspension seems to be race car stiff. It would score lower than the twin turbo viper. That would make it lose Sorted.

    I don’t want to be that guy, but I don’t see any one else going there so screw it. I call BS. You’re making 700 hp at 3000 rpm with REAL rally spec Anti lag. All on stock I beam rods while running consistent hot laps? No chance no way she’s holding together. Maybe I’m wrong, it would be cool if I am. But if I had to bet I’d say she’s built and your playing with class rules or something. That being said SUPER cool car. Real anti lag though? Amazing

      600 HP on a s2k f20/f22 stock engine is normal bud. Its Forged from factory. Now the trans and diff is the weak point. Torque that low is a different story .

    • @jub07
      @jub07 3 роки тому +6

      He also admitted that he has two engines available. I have a feeling his definition of reliable and yours are probably two different things. He didn't claim to have put 100,000 miles on this engine in this configuration. As pointed out, 600 hp is pretty common out of stock block s2000's. Most do not hold up to track abuse but most of those systems are not thought out nearly as well as this build. I believe the most common issue with FI stock block s2000s is that Honda uses tight bearing clearances. It's very possible that he has altered the clearances as well. I agree that I think there is not complete information in this video but to blatantly call BS is not supported either.
