Overdrive???
Hey guys I have a 2000 Si and was wondering if I have an overdrive button or something to make rpm's drop when Im cruising at highway speeds. I thought 5th gear was overdrive but when Im in 5th gear doin about 70mph Im at 4000rpm's. This has to do with the way the gears are ratioed right?

Yes. I feel that b16 tranny that your car comes with stock is one of the best OEM tranny's available. There is no overdrive button.

Maybe the S2000 was not made to cruise around on highways ! It's a pretty powerful car and the best gift you can have with a Honda S2000 is the sound it makes.... If you have the money to pay a Honda S2000 you may have money to pay the fuel.... xD
cvcrcr99, it was not a F22 in the S2000 and not a b16 ? If I remember the b16 was a Civic engine ? You know frankenstein engines were ex; H22 with a cam of H23 which went on prelude and b16 and D16 which which were on Civic and Acura 1.6 EL ?
Maybe i'm wrong too

I'm confused here. You mention a overdrive button, then say its a 5speed. The overdrive button is only for automatics.
So, if its a stick - no overdrive button. And as the former owner of a 99Si, I know that you should be getting pretty good gas mileage being in 5th gear. Just make sure you keep her under 3,000 RPM whilst on the city streets.
