A friend and I got to talking today about the benefits of NOS, versus the standard SC and TT's available.
The main benefit that we chalked up to NOS is that the system isn't always on. So, you can still appreciate the everyday driveability of the NSX, but click on the NOS if you're at the track, or late to pickup the mrs. from the airport.
But, is the NOS system worth the hassle as compared to superchargers and twin-turbos? Sure, those are always on once you install them and need careful maintenance (not that a stock NSX doesn't) to prevent from breakdown.
What's the difference in acceleration (1/4 mile times, 0-100, etc) between NOS, SC, and TT's anyhow? To clarify the question a bit, on a stock NSX engine, with no other modifications, which delivers the best bang for the buck?
And if anyone has any clue as to what the fuel economy is for any of these, I'd love to hear it...
