600 whp Lovefab NSX

[Axerjk]

The turbo on this sounded like a jet turbine powering on and off. This is the first time I've been able to mic the exhaust on this car.

Nice....

Go Pro?

what mic did you use? i bought a Olympus one but it's not great if any wind.

Sounds sweet. That's a lot of smoke though.

I was thinking the same thing...maybe from the dump tube to atmosphere?

I'm assuming the a/f is ok.

looked blue to me

 

[peiserg]

maybe blue because it's depressed it only has 600 rwhp? It needs 605.1

Nice!

This car originally was dyno'd at 920 before being detuned to 600. It's plenty fast enough for me!

Looks like you boosted about 13psi? Also do you have short gears or is it just THAT fast? Ditto the smoke comments at 1:23.

What type of exhaust? None?
What turbo?
Sounds BAD ASS!
Thx

Boost = 1st @ 9psi, 2nd @ 12psi, 3rd-on @ 13.5psi
Gears= JDM 2-3-4
Exhaust = short pipe off the hot side ;^D
Turbo = GT45R

A little smoke yes, but it's not a problem (likely turbo seals are due soon).
Yes, the pull from 1:02 was in 3rd gear.

I thought everybody already knew this beast, it was Cody's original LoveFab 'shop' car.

Thanks Chris for the great video (and audio)!

I was in this car when it was 1000(?) hp, and he was new to the NSX scene. He brought it over to IL and met up with a few of us at a local restaurant. I already had a Comptech supercharger on my car at the time. This is the car that "made" me sell it:wink: Wicked fast is all I can say....

3rd gear pulls (in Mexico) are the best:smile:

Gee this car looks familiar....

We visited LoveFab a few years ago so Cody could do an exhaust upgrade on our red NSX, and got to see the purple beast while there.
Sadly, it was down for a transmission repair so no opportunity for a blast in it.
Fate gave us another chance when he put it up FS a year or so later.......

Any pictures from the restaurant meet up you guys had???
