The HP numbers on an S2000 are recorded at a very high red line that is not typical of day to day driving and shifting at a reasonable RPM; this in turn does not enable a person shifting at a reasonable RPM to get to the advertised engine HP, because they never get the engine turning that fast. This is a fact like it or not.
hp is measured at the point where there is maximum horsepower available... not always the redline. Are you trying to say that all manufacturers record hp numbers at a certain rpm?

in conclusion, what the hell are you talking about
