I'm surprised to hear a vote for it. Figured it would all be to keep them.

I love the flips, but I love the newer front end better.

I think you should swap over to the new front end, but install the flip ups on the back wired to your reverse lights. You know, keep everyone happy!

I think the flip ups make the NSX look more original / classic I guess you can say but to each his own and that is just my

I'm in the "keep the flip-ups" camp. Don't get me wrong, I love the bug eyes too, really. However, I was a teen/young adult in the 80's and flip ups and as such, will never cease to be immensely cool to me. I'm trying to find a way to LED the flip ups to modernize them, but the flip-ups will stay. (As an aside: thank GOD the Gheri curl fad died in the 80's. Yuuuuuuuck.)

I actually had someone from the owners group on fb pm me yesterday saying he knew of 3 people looking to sell their supercharger so that's got my attention lol.

Lately I've been wanting more power. A blower is perfect. Another 80-100hp and I'll be satisfied.

+1 on the classic flip up headlights.

Always loved the Stacey side skirts. Some think they're bulky, but I think they perfect and flow nicely with your WW front lip.

btw, where did you pick up that CSX steering wheel?

theyre actually made by downforce. They're oem replica sides with a vent added. I don't like the Stacey sides because I think theyre bulky too which is why I passed on those.

I got the steering wheel off eBay.

im going to run the low boost pulley so probably not. A buddy of mine is going to do the install, he's a former NSX owner. I'm not ready to install yet. Waiting on some parts to come in from comptech. Also need to get the navi pod. I plan on mounting my gauges in it.

mine is still kicking. Almost sold it but the wife convinced me otherwise even with 3 kids! I still have your calipers ready to go on, haven't had time.
I agree the S/C will complete the NSX. In for results!

you must be really busy because i parted my CL out right after i bought my NSX and that was almost 5 years ago lol. yea it does complete it. i think it should have come with one from factory. it came severely underpowered.

Looking forward to your updates. I know the NSX world is 50/50 on feelings with a S/C on an Auto NSX.

I'll be fine. They all have opinions on it but most dont know of anyone who's done it. I personally know someone has a supercharged auto NSX and another that has a turbo auto NSX and they're both doing fine. As long as youre not insane with the hp. Then yea you'll start having issues and probably want a built tranny.

Does this kit have any aftercooling? What psi is low boost? If I had an nsx a supercharger would be a must. I love the reliability and power delivery.
