Warning signs of a bad dealer. Nice car though.

it is very odd that an Acura dealership would be selling a supercharged Acura, since now they are liable if anything goes wrong with it, especially with aftermarket products.

very fishy.

with the headers and the SC that car would not be pushing 350hp at the crank. My estimate is approximately 325 and if that car has the HBP it might be closer to 335-340 at the crank

No way it has 350hp. Signs that the technician there doesn't no much about the aftermarket and the dealer more than likely only said it in the ad to hype up the car. And since I been to that dealership before, I am letting everyone know that dealer sucks ass!

I'd say that thing is pushing 350hp at the crank....not the wheels, but definitely the crank.

Not really, we recently sold a supercharged NSX w/ 30K miles on it. As long as the car is sold "as is" w/ no warranty the dealer isn't responsible for aftermarket parts.

350hp at the crank for sure.

Darrin's CL-S with I/H/E/P/Unichip dynoed at about 250 fwhp, meaning well over 300 hp at the crank. With the supercharged setup, I say 350 hp at the crank minimum.

350 at the crank.... why does that not seem reasonable??? Alone it has 260 and with a supercharger and headers it probably has 350 if not more. I'm suprised the original owner didn't throw in a dyno since that dealer seems so obsessed with performance upgrades.

That and you wonder how many were on that supercharger, as well as how many transmissions it's gone through.
