I'm glad to see you NSX guys finally figured out how to turbo your cars. From what I had been seeing a year or so back, it was like some black art or something. I wish you all the best Scorp, and really want to see some videos! I bet that car is a hoot!

The car made 396rwhp and 312rwtq... it was also heat soaking on the dyno. I have a larger heat exchanger (the fluidyne upgrade for 03-04 cobras) coming from Summit, and I hope to lower my IAT's significantly... the car should end up around 450rwhp.

Oohh WOW, looks delicious.
Very nice and the modifications looks good.
I would see the car in real.
You said 98% is done. And what do you think about the last 2%?

otherwise looks really agressive

That's a really sweet ride, the only thing I don't care for is the wing. I don't dislike the wing because I'm opposed to them or anything, I just don't care for how it doesn't line up with the factory wing mount. It would have been nice if they had given it shoulders that sat or stuck out over the factory mount, so it doesn't have that extra body line.

I'm a weirdo for things like that though, so don't mind me, like my friends say, "I can't see it from the driver's seat"

It's a factory option wing, from the NSX-R

Wow, how very un-honda! I don't recall seeing any other Honda/Acura that came with carbon fiber parts that were visible on the outside of the car.


Am I just plain wrong on that too?
