For those that say that it isn't much torque, it weighs about 400-500 pounds less than a corvette (2800 pounds). It's going back to InlinePro soon in Virginia to get a new intercooler, radiator, retune, and axles/driveshaft/rear diff and will be over 600 hp on C16 racegas and over 500 hp on pump gas on a conservative tune, on a STOCK BLOCK. Ya, a corvette can put out more power, but it also costs more, and costs more to mod. Don't underestimate the power of rice

    Im almost postive that the "Ricer" term, means that the fuel will turn into a rice shaped bead before it is fed into the injecter therefore giving better gas milage. So almost any cars can be ricers.

    But the corvette costs 40K more to begin with. I would consider the s2000's mods fair just to break even on money out of pocket vs the corvette.

    base model corvettes, the ls3 can be had for low 40's. How can it cost 40k more?

    Ricing is a state of mind.

    It doesn't matter if you have a Honda Civic or a Dodge Viper. If you're going to put a fart-can on and tribal vinyls down the side, it's Rice either way.

    Re: What imports aren't ricers?

    i think we cannot deny the fact that a v6 or smaller can never be more powerful or faster than a v8, it just is not possible if you mod them both the same the v8 will always be alot faster
