STI have improved the EJ20 Boxer engine with a new sport ECU, exclusive roller bearing turbo, lightweight titanium STI exhaust, improved inlet efficiency, revised inlet cam profile and a larger air filter. To cope with this increase in power STI have also fitted an additional Oil cooler. The changes to the engine have increased horsepower output to:
Power 320 Bhp (235kW) @ 6,400 rpm
Torque 283 lbft (384Nm) @ 4,400 rpm
The suspension set-up is based on the amazing RA Spec C but also features up rated bushes and ring links that further improves the already special chassis.
The S202 also features stainless steel brake hoses enhancing braking force and more importantly pedal feel. Even the wheels have been changed to lighter (-7 kg) 10 spoke 17" Alloys fitted with high grip Pireri Zero Rosso's.
The S202 uniquely has a new wind tunnel tested high rear wing made from carbon fibre that dramatically improves the car's high-speed stability. The interior also receives attention with special black cloth on the bucket seats and door trim. Unlike the stripped out Type RA models the S202 features a few creature comforts such as manual Air conditioning, electric windows and central locking.

Agreed, but this one doesn't look as gay as all the others to date, plus it's not blue which is a good start.

Not really, the S202 and Spec C have been out a long time.

According to Sniffpetrol.com, by about 2006 you should be able to have a rock concert in the bonnet scoop.
As for the car... same old same old.

bunch of homos....
boring??? - ever driven one in anger?
IC on top to help with engine cooling.....
If it had a FMIC the rad would be starved of cold air! (does it have a viscous fan?) and having it up there gives reason for the scoop
