    High RPM?

    Stock fuel cut is 8300 rpm so I doubt that just over 8000 will cause the oil pump gears to crack if so then we would have seen hundreds of cases, plus the old chips that people ran that gave an extra 250 rpm. Never heard of any failure from those (I had one back in the day and ran it for...

    Torque VS Horsepower... 100ftlbs TQ gain on a N/A J-Swap?

    The highest torque per liter is the 458 Italia at 89 foot pounds per liter and it is no a lower rpm car. In fact the cars with the most torque per liter are all high rpm cars. I'm sorry to tell you this, but NO WAY in hell will a Acura/Honda motor make that much torque per liter as indicated...

    Supercharger Intercooler still available??

    Yes all of that plus the upgraded power distribution, EMS (AEM 2 or Infinity) flex fuel sensor (ie you can run both E-85 and regular gasoline), tuning. SoS has all these things and yes it is not cheap, I estimate around 4K (maybe more). However E-85 is extremely detonation resistant and is not...

    Supercharger Intercooler still available??

    What about E-85? Chris at SOS said they have done a couple of conversions even on intercooled supercharged cars. I asked about it when I was there last month. E-85 cools the actual combustion event. It is a good amount of money especially if you don't have the AEM 2 or the Infinity.

    What kind of timing advance are you guys running?

    RYU is the tuning done by UMS? If so then you are fine. It is quite possible the reading are artificially high. If you were really that high you would have cooked your motor by now. Also which size engine do you have? I believe the 3.2 ran more timing than the 3.0. Ultimately you run what...

    Stock Exhaust for CTSC powered NSX?

    You do know that the pride exhaust is more free flowing than stock and stock is fine for the CTSC. I have the Pride V1 and I have about 5 years worth of logs. I saw when I put the Pride on that the boost increased (about 1-1.5 psi) once you got past 7K for the first couple of months. After...

    ebola

    Travel is restricted from those countries. How about you get all the facts. Dude flew from Brussels and it was not a connecting flight. As long as people can travel to other airports in the world and then wait a couple of days, they can next travel anywhere.

    The itch for Turbo...

    You have the option of the AEM Series 2 and then going to E-85 with the high boost pulley. With a tune this should only be 3-4K. You could also do the ATI crank pulley to free some parasitic loses. I believe this would get you close or right at 400rwhp. This is just an option to maximize the...

    Blodi's Lovefab LF600 Engine and Turbo Build...

    I would not trust that number. The Enzo and the Porsche Carrera GT both do 60-100 in 3.2s, the McLaren F1 in 3.1 and the Mclaren MP4-12C in 2.9. Most of the pros use Driftbox for their performance metrics along with Rennlist along with drag slips but since most of their runs are 60-100 and now...

    Has the GTR lost its luster?

    Not entirely true. The GTR CdA is 6.08 sq ft and the 1991-2001 NSX is 6.13 and the 2002-2005 is 5.74. The NSX-R is even lower (don't know exactly what it is however).

    Clutch engaging to high....

    No the engagement point is the same, you will just have more mush before you get there or less depending on how you adjust the pushrod. Like others has stated as the clutch wears the engagement will get higher than normal but the NSX still engages high. The pushrod adjustment can give you more...

    Opinions on this ferrari 360 vs nsx

    There are no hot-rodded Ferrari 328/348 and that's the point being made. That argument of if I modify this car then you can modify the other car does hold up with a Ferrari since it's basically taboo to modify one. You want a modified Ferrari you buy the next upgraded model. If you want a 360...

    Opinions on this ferrari 360 vs nsx

    The only point I was trying to make is the 360 is a bad deal. It's vastly under powered and typically dynos around 300-310 at the wheels which is pathetic for what it was rated at (since that is only 50 to 60 more than the stock NA2). The 430 makes 100+ more at the wheels and updates...
