20 more hp than headers and CAI for $4000.
No warrantee, CARB EO stickers, or 50 state smog data.
And brakes that already are begging for some kind of upgrade.
Gee, and we don't even get a set of beefed up 1st and 2nd gears for our input and output shafts.
Well, they will help Acura sell a bunch of cars as they go BOOM!

Although I do not like doing it and I avoid it like bubonic plague I'd say a few hundred dollars and a night in my garage with the good help of Dr. Nitrous Oxide and we can easily outrun that car on the track plus you have lots of money left to pay for the new trans when that goes boom.Jens

Eric, glad to see you reward honesty from a true R&D program....Are you a member of the conservative party on the California ticket??? Those who have seen and driven the car usually say WOW, not BOOM! Most of my drag racing friends from Cali, whom we meet at the national racing events think this is a great project and we have support from many, many professionals. I'm just sorry to see that you disagree with experimentation, lucky for us you didn't work for Lockheed managing the SKUNK WORKS or we would not have such great aircraft as the Blackbird, the Stealth, or the U2, all risky experiments.
Happy hunting with your 3.2 and please don't get caught by a 3.5, your "theory" may not hold water.
-------------------------------------------
You sure have thin skin. Since you are talking to potential customers, I wonder how you would act if there were a problem with your setup.
1. I like experiments.
2. You seem to be describing yourself.
3. Why, not a calm. Well, we are going to be addressing the brake issues.
4. If you look through my posts, even back through the TL board, I have stated that experimentation should be encouraged.
5. Since you've taken the time to think that I hate inventors. Have you ever heard of a Lear Jet, Motorola, first Jet Gyro, first Car Radio, etc... Think about it a while, and look up my profile (think about it a bit...) and look up my last name. Do you think I hate my grandfather?
BTW -- Before your little tirade, I did actually remark that I would be interested in your product, if you would address certain issues. In another thread, I remarked how you "seemed" to ignore the "CARB" issue, warrantee, and other issues. These are important to me. You don't have to solve them right now, just a worst-case date or summary of intentions. If you are going to "play" business man/inventor, then get ready for some tough questions. If you were just selling paper clips, I would just pony up the 3 bucks and try them. But, this is a car with a warrantee.
Are you telling me that you are going to insult your future stockowners if they want more info..?
(I actually like the idea of the stroker, but I would like to know how the transmission holds up. You actually brought the issue up in regards to "bashing" Comptech's supercharger project. So, you brought the issue up, why not help clarify it.)

---------------------------------------
I have been! Are you?
Ground rules:
1. Answer questions with "I don't know or I don't know yet"
2. No personal attacks. I'm asking questions and I've even said, I'm interested in the idea.
3. You acknowledge that people who ask "tough" questions (potential customers) deserve to be treated with respect. If you don't, do you deserve any?
If you have noticed, I have never gotten personal with you. On the other hand, you have chosen a personal attack, on my character (and, you don't even know me, or my background).
If you will look, I even suggested that someone look at your product.
Example of your attacks (oh how short a memory):
So, instead of just saying, "Gee, we like to supply California, but it is not on our agenda right now... and it is very expensive." You have to act like a "infant" again and suggest that I cure your problem with CARB by moving to Florida. (BTW -- my sister lives in Florida, so yes the weather is nice there to.) So, once again, I (the customer) am wrong for living in CA, and you have the arrogance to suggest that I move because you guys have a 3.5 engine. Boy, how witty.
[sorry, after the Florida comeback, I feel entitled![:]](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/redface.gif)
Finally, to compare what your doing to Kelly Johnson is pathetic. While I commend your company's gumption to take on a new endeavor, to compare a well-done exercise in cars (stroking and mining ponies) to the creative work of a certified genius who's works are still considered state of the art, is just plane silly.
We are talking about a 30K car, and 13-14 second 1/4 mile times. Not saving us and the world from a nuclear war (Thank the U2 and some cool heads...)
Keep it up, a lot of people will wonder what they will be dealing with, if they have a problem!

The only real question for you is that which you haven't said....What is a reasonable bang-for-the-buck upgrade when you go outside of the header/intake which everyone must have? Believe it or not, our customers have spent $40K for an 11 second ITR brand new. For $40K you could almost buy a Vette, but it stiff wouldn't run an eleven, and even worse, it still wouldn't be an ACURA.
There is always someone who wants to go faster, unfortunately that costs money. Its not the power numbers, its being different in our own private war at every stop light. Can you agree.....

I barely ever write on this board any more do to many of the members immaturity now I have to come here and listen to a "tuner", asking for our business, be immature. As for your 1/4 mile times I'm not impressed at all. With a $50 homemade intake and a V-AFC (a less than $400 total investment) I have turned a best time of 14.1 @ 99.6 MPH (and numerous 14.2's) at Desoto speedway here in Fl. I would hope that for the money you are asking I would get a hell of a lot more performance than this. Sure I bet your car is faster, but you also ask for 10x what I spent for a few tenths at best. I'm pretty sure I could pick those few tenths up by purchasing a header, and racing on a better track like Moroso. Your "product" is good in theory (it's the first thing I thought of when I started thinking CL-S performance) but you need some serious improvement in your products output, before it's worth a $5000 investment.

Thats enough about your lame driver comment.
I need not solicit business from the web, unfortunately, this type of work is time consuming and their is no shortage in my own back yard. Sorry to loose the West Florida market by your nay sayer postings, its funny how others in your own back yard email me and chuckle at your expense.
I wish one day I could log on and see that people like you would just take my postings for shared information...not as challenges to their own pride. If your bone stock -S ran a 14.1 @ 99 MPH, call Acura, they may want it back to find out how it happened. It is not normal for a production car to have this type of variance when the average time slip in this warm climate is 14.8-15.1. If something seems strange, it probably is.
Regarding tuning the VAF-C, call some shops over in Tampa and ask them if they know any Good engine builders/tuners down here. How did we get our methanol 1.8L motor to unleash 1000 + HP at 70 PSI? Just bolt it in and guess? Must have been the luck of some grade schoolers, eh? Strangely, our VAFC tuning with this car netted losses over most of the power spectrum. I'll bet you pulled your High Cam setting down to 4000 RPM or so....say bye bye torque plateau. Remember, the Honda didn't set the Cam transition point via a guess. If your car ran a 14.1, pull the power lead off the VAFC or zero the settings and run your time again to see if you loose 7-8/10's in your run.
Good luck, my offer to test your car still stands.

DR. says its time to play nice.
Patients want a good surgeon and want a doctor with a good bedside manner.
You seem to be doing good operations, but need to go to one of those "sensitivity" training classes.
See ya in Hyde park

Will this 3.5 litre be available as a kit?Since I work for a dealer we are ofcourse curious to see how this project turns out and what plans Rick Case Acura has for it.Sorry if I misunderstood the pricing structure of this project in rereading the posts I now see that there are various levels of enhancement possible at different price levels.
Correct me if I am wrong but there is no inspection program in Florida in regards to emissions?
Unfortuanately here in the New York tristate area we are saddled with this emissions program so naturally I am interested in knowing if this project or at least some versions of it could be made street legal.
We have had a few hits with clients that might be interested in such an upgrade or at least a version of it but as you can imagine there is an importance in having a street legal version of this project to sell in the northeast.
Well keep us posted we are watching and listening and my apologies for my misundestanding.Jens

Correct me if I am wrong but there is no inspection program in Florida in regards to emissions?
Unfortuanately here in the New York tristate area we are saddled with this emissions program so naturally I am interested in knowing if this project or at least some versions of it could be made street legal.
We have had a few hits with clients that might be interested in such an upgrade or at least a version of it but as you can imagine there is an importance in having a street legal version of this project to sell in the northeast.
Well keep us posted we are watching and listening and my apologies for my misundestanding.Jens

Will this 3.5 litre be available as a kit?Since I work for a dealer we are ofcourse curious to see how this project turns out and what plans Rick Case Acura has for it.Sorry if I misunderstood the pricing structure of this project in rereading the posts I now see that there are various levels of enhancement possible at different price levels.

You seem to be doing good operations, but need to go to one of those "sensitivity" training classes.

Oh yes you are sooo superior to me... for you information I did run my car stock with best run of 14.7 most were 14.9 though. Challenges to my pride?? You the one shit talking. There are a few people here with cars with a few bolt ons that run low 14's. Your statement of a 14.0 run for $5000 is silly that's all. Some thing is wrong, could be the car, the tuner, or the driver. I wouldn't know I'm not there. Most likely it's your attitude. I sure as hell wouldn't do good work for you with that kind of attitude, can't see why anyone would.
