    Curb encounter

    OK, for you armchair diagnosticians, please take your best guess. Turning right into a parking lot at a somewhat aggressive speed, I clipped the curb with the rear passenger-side wheel. It hit hard enough for the rear wheel to exhibit road rash on the rim but no visible bend in the rim. I...

    Different Wipples

    Ken, could you give some specifics on that? In my case, I have the late Whipple(2003 approx.) 1.6L and am running a hi-boost pulley. But if I wanted to to use the 2.3L or 2.9L unit, wouldn't a custom manifold or adapter plate be needed? Thanks. John

    Preview: NSX's Gone Wild

    Good looking teaser videos. I would prefer more NSX sounds and less music track though - with an option to mute the music track entirely.

    I mean wtf are these people doing? Another $410 billion for nothing?

    The over-extension of credit and debt, both private and public, has occured under both Republican and Democrat administrations. But the simple fact at this point is that we cannot solve a problem caused by too much credit and debt by trying to re-inflate the economy with additional credit and...

    If you could make one LAW that could not be changed

    A federal balanced budget. This would, at times, inflict short-term pain but would solve many of our long-term problems.

    Correct FMU setting for CTSC?!

    Not necessarily, at least as used by some manufacturers. The following unit is similar to the one used on the CTSC. http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/product.php?p=30&cat_key=5

    idle fluctuation at startup when a/c turned on

    This condition just suddenly appeared. When the car is started, idle is normal unless the a/c is turned on. With the a/c on, idle speed fluctuates (yo-yo) and gets so low that the engine stalls. Turn the a/c off, or wait until the engine is at least partially warmed up, and idle is normal...

    Love the NSX...but why? (non-owner)

    IMO, people who are dedicated to Porsche, Ferrari or other premium names are as dedicated to the name as much as they are to the car. The NSX, being an Acura, doesn't have the name appeal of brands with "history" behind them. Then there are fans of American muscle who tend to dismiss anything...

    Couple AEM FIC questions

    See this thread http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=91870 Also, specifically, this quote from AEM: "1. The FIC has an O2 table, which allows you to change the O2 signal that is sent to the stock ECU. For older cars, we recommend using the O2 table in Offset mode, with MAP as the...

    Couple AEM FIC questions

    I got the F/IC off Ebay for $375 shipped. Boomslang offers an NSX OBD1 harness for about $210 shipped.

    550cc RC injector o-rings

    No, these injectors are relatively new. I removed the fuel rail for a problem unrelated (as it turns out) to the injectors and when I was reinstalling the rail I found one of the o-rings was broken.

    550cc RC injector o-rings

    Does anyone know the specs and a source for the o-rings for these injectors? I don't see any info on the RC Engineering website pertaining to replacement o-rings. I need a replacement for one of the lower(manifold) o-rings now but would like specs and a source on both lower and upper if anyone...

    Tuning for water/meth injection with CTSC, stock ecu/AEM F/IC

    Thanks for the responses. Ron98's suggestion is exactly what I have in mind. Get a basic Snow Performance system for street use only, use it as a standalone method to reduce IAT at boost (6lb. threshold sounds reasonable), not integrated directly to the ecu/F/IC. In other words, keep it...

    Tuning for water/meth injection with CTSC, stock ecu/AEM F/IC

    I'm interested in adding a water/meth injection system to a hi-boost CTSC (Whipple) setup which is using the stock ecu/AEM F/IC. What I want to achieve is lower IAT without the tune depending on having the water injection present so that any failure of the water injection system should not...
