Default What are the differences between the RSX-S and S2000 engines?

I've been looking at dyno charts and it just seems that the S2000 just revs higher, therefore making more HP. But it does have more peak torque. So is it different cam profiles? Different head?

Well rather then get sarcastic and be an *** about it, why dont you try and help the new guy out. I take it by your sarcastic remark you dont know do you. If you dont know about it dont try and get people flaming on him. Thanks yoda for helping him out. He is new and probably doesnt know about it.

The s2ooo engine(f20) is completely different then the rsx motor(k20) but R & D has been showing that they can be used together. Ie.. RSX motor with a s2ooo head, or maybe a crv motor with a rsx head..either way the new motor is starting to show life. Do a search on the s2ooo engine and the rsx engine and see the difference yourself bro. Both are sweet motors and have alot of potential.
Hope this helped..Good Luck..

Thanks Yoda and f1nal. I was under the impression that the k20 was more of a detuned f20, but it seems they're two different beasts.

umm yeah, the different engine codes would denote that.

dLo,

Excuse me for not knowing any Honda engine codes before coming here. I thought I could learn more here than on Honda's website. I thank the two people that gave me some useful information.

One other thing I did learn is why some of you Honda guys are referred to as "rice", it's your arrogance. At least on this post 50% of you are.

either way your post was a party waiting to happen.

maybe you should try reading my post. your first impression was that they were the same engine. and then you said your impression was that, again, it was the same engine (detuned). so you tell me if your impression as different beforehand. because i don't see how it was.

u!

you're first post was this:

I was looking for more of an adult answer but I guess I came to the wrong forum.
I'll have to try clubrsx and s2ki separately.

Is it just me or was the original question just read incorrectly?
The question was - "What are the differences between the RSX-S and S2000 engines?"

It almost seems like people thought it read -
"Is there a difference between the RSX-S and S2000 engines?"

Anyways, I think Djazair has a good question. I believe that the Rsx Type R
will have something in the range of 220hp. Like most engines,
the Type R engine will be operating at a very high efficiency (~110hp/litre)
and perhaps close to it's limit? Question I have is if it is possible to obtain the
s2000 numbers with the Rsx-s or typeR engine (without forced induction)
If so what is the extent of work that will be required?

Both the S2000 and RSX-S have 2.0 litre engines yet one produces 40hp less.
Is the reason for the discrepancy in hp related to marketing and pricing structure
for vehicles?

Thanks in advance
