I don't know if sales are limited to those installed by Mr. Basch, but I do know that he is more than happy to fly across the country to other locations to install the BBSC and do other NSX work.

This is an interesting assertion. If its accurate, then it implies that for a lot of STREET driving, a 9-lb CTSC may actually give a preferred performance curve, and may be the price-independent choice.Originally posted by NSXTC:
Well, the way I see it is that the high-boost option CTSC still gives better low end grunt than the standard BBSC. This could be seen as more desirable for guys who like to run weekend track events, because you can get better pull coming out of those turns running between 5-7,000 RPM.
The BBSC has bigger lungs than the CTSC and can get us a better max HP number, it just takes a bit longer to ramp up than the CTSC. That, in a nutshell is the big difference for most guys. Forgetting about the price difference for a moment, the decision comes down ultimately to a matter of driving style and personal preference.

Would it be correct to state that folks with short gears and / or R&P would benefit more with the BBSC, since they will be at a higher RPM?

If the rev band is lengthened on the top gears, then is it safe to say the top speed is not affected by short gears?

I'd pay AT MOST 50% of a BBSC for a 9 PSI CTSC kit. IMO the 9 PSI CTSC provides less value than BBSC, and cannot be sold for more.
Is this the first of many? It will be interesting to see what this brings:
