I recently rode in a NSX at the local road coarse and let me say this thing hauled ass around the corners. I thought my CL-S with Tein's, sways, strut bar, and sticky rubber was getting around the coarse at good pace....Wrong!

Maybe for the 5AT. However, before the S/C was installed on my 6MT, it dyno'd at 236 (with i/h/b-pipe/e). After the S/C was installed, it dyno'd at 305. So that's a 69 WHP gain.

Not for the 6-Speed, the 5AT was in that range. It was more like 60 WHP gain for the 6-Speed. The HBP adds about another 20 WHP. That is a total of about 80 WHP and is about what I would expect from running 1.4 pressure ratio. I made 246 WHP prior to the blower so I added 77 WHP with the blower and HBP.

Now, with the IC and more boost I expect to see in the 370 - 380 WHP range when I get back on the dyno in the next couple of weeks.

Sweet fancy Moses.

But you don't have the IC on yet, correct?

It has been on for about two months now and will be going on sale within a week. I'm just waiting on one last pulley for about 1 PSI more boost; to about 8 PSI average. Add to it tuning of the e-Manage and I should be ready for the dyno and track. I'd love to make more power but the conservative estimate is about 375 WHP.
