not too familiar with supercharger. I thought usually you change the pulley and stuff to make more boost.
Does tuning help SCed cars like Turbo cars?
Yup, you can get more aggressive tunes just like a turbo setup which allows for more boost to build on the supercharger. Maybe maharajamd could elaborate more on this, but I'd imagine there would be a little more headroom on the stock blower .
But... Provided the NSX can time travel, it could theoretically freeze it and takes its sweet ass time to arrive and make it to the finish before anyone is the wiser...
I went ahead and did the oil change last night, still need to do the interior detail for C&C.
I'm happy to report that there was no coolant in the oil, it dropped just over 6 quarts (Factory capacity is 6.3). I don't know when the last time it was changed, but wholy moley .. the oil filter was really stuck on there. It took all of my strength to get it off (to the point of me questioning righty tighty lefty loosey), but eventually broke free with my filter wrench. I was thinking in the back of my mind .. is this just a hint of how hard it's going to be working on this thing in the future? Come the f'k on.
For the not so good news, there is a small oil leak right near the driverside turbo but it's minor & runs slow.
I sprayed underneath the entire engine / transmission with an oil degreaser and wiped it down to better identify where the leak is actually coming from, but otherwise the car is pretty clean for being a 15 year old Audi
Oh yea, car is now registered in the state of CA! $747 later ... $580 of that being sales tax
I'm ready to see more pics of this car. The front looks a bit dated (well duh, it's 17 years old), but I think the back looks pretty timeless. There's something about those tail lights that I really enjoy. The side profile is also.

Those pics really make it shine, it's a beautiful car. Hope the turbo leak doesn't get worse otherwise get ready to bust out that platinum card.
