I've heard that forced induction NSXs are killer!

Here is a picture of a 450hp supercharged NSX and the next picture is of a 510hp single turbo NSX! Super sweet stuff.

The GruppeM supercharger and the Hp-motorsports turbo kit are both pretty decent FI kits, but after months of research, the one that stands out the best to me is the lovefab turbo kit. Its a relatively new kit, but once more and more people get it installed and experience it, I think it will be the next Comptech Supercharger and will be on just about all the NSXs

Excerpt from Lovefab.com: "This is the first RELIABLE turbo system to hit the market for the NSX. In our combined customer vehicles, there are over 50,000 miles on the system with no issues. As you can see from the dyno chart below, power production is VERY easy; expect 700wheel horsepower on a properly prepared engine, with the base PT67 ball-bearing turbo. Naturally, larger turbos are available."

I especially like that Cody Loveland actually owns an NSX and has been testing it on his OWN car (not CUSTOMER cars). And he beats on that car harder in a month than I have on my own NSX the entire time I've owned it.

One word - WOW!!!

A question...or really more of an observation / I have been an NSX owner for many years, cureently driving NSX #4 and from my experience most mechanical problems with the NSX are due to modifications made to it, i.e., doing more with it than it was designed and engineered to do. In the past I considered slight modifications especially for more low-end torque, but there has always been a fear of "suspose what I do makes it break?" And there can be some very expensive "breaks" related to the NSX.

Maybe it's just me and my concern, but I do like seeing what others do to their NSX's. I guess I am just an "auto-voyeur".

Truthfully, the NSX engine is special, but it is still a engine. Yes, it can break - but it can also be made much stronger and completely capable of handling the additional stress forced induction would place on the engine.

Luckily bolt-ons alone and a good EMS tune on our cars will net considerable gains, the C30/32 have a lot of power potential in stock trim.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with enjoying the NSX in its stock or mildly modified form. Its a great car one way or the other. Mine is just bolt-ons itself.. but the tinkering honda boy in me is just waiting until I dig into the internals of the engine. :-D
