Has anyone gone from boosted S2000 to boosted 370Z?

There are some things to appreciate about the S2000. But it is my personal opinion that once you experience the powerband of a boosted VQ, you will probably never look

I always loved the S2K as a car, and enjoyed borrowing them from friends. But for me, the engine ruined that car. I know it can handle a lot of power, but I loathe its driving characteristics.

It does feel a bit slow around town but once I get the revs over 6k or so it's fast. Makes most other engines feel really tame on the top end. Around town my stage 2 legacy gt feels much faster but once you rev it up it feels so slow in comparison.

I need to go drive a new 370Z I think. New mustang looks like it will definitely be a much better performer but don't think I could get over the fact it's a mustang.
