I think th solstice is a royal joke, nothing but a Saturn Sky. Considering it whips out about what, 150- 160 hp with a turbo? When the S2000 alone does 145? Pshhh.... try a turboed S2000, can you say SPANKED!?

You should educate yourself on the car before you make comments about it.
The Solstice is a 2.4 DOHC VVT 177hp. It does not come turboed. And an s2000 is 232hp, but its also a $32,000 car. Considering a solstice costs 19,000, take the solstice and drop $14,000 in performance mods and I bet it could handle the s2000

Lesson One: putting a 1000hp engine in a car doesnt mean that it will run Anything. There are so many upgrades that are needed to support the added weight alone, plus the substantial work that must be done to the chassis to hold up to the added torque and horsepower. Also, when you can only fit say, a 10" by 24" tire under teh *** end, even with a pure drag racing slick, its going to be a NIGHTMARE to hook up.

I think that constitutes abit of work catagory though. Cool thing for ecotec engine owners though is that GM released a manual describing every single engine mod and where to buy the parts to get the engine up there.
