Nope, I said
POTENTIALLY six figures. If all goes well it could cost less than that. If all hell breaks loose then it could
POTENTIALLY cost up to six figures. So basically you choose to ignore the meaning of a word just to be argumentative. Nice.
Theres a new reason, wow.
Again, choosing to ignore my point and focus on selective statements. I said the boost can become uncontrollable. I also said in the
very next sentence "However, given a fearless driver and a perfect run, it's definitely possible." That seems to agree with what you are saying, yet you choose to focus on being condescending. Again, nice.
I don't recall him saying it would require 800whp, rather 800whp would definitely do the job which we all have agreed. If I were to shoot for 9's I would want to make ~700whp to ensure a little wiggle room, which is the number I have posted several times in this thread.. I only asked about 650whp because I wanted to see if anyone was even in the ballpark of attempting a serious 9 second pass with slicks. Honestly with 650whp an NSX should be 140+ which is 9 second territory, but like I said wiggle room, a little extra so you don't have to make multiple passes to achieve it.
I personally do not think 650 whp is enough to achieve a 9 second pass. But that is my opinion, you are free to disagree with that. However, if you want to say for arguments sake it will take 700 whp, I feel that everything I said regarding the issues with 800 whp still applies to 700 whp, which you still conveniently neglect to address.
Regardless, thanks for reminding me why I never bother with this part of the forums again. It's guys like you when I actually try to share first hand, real world experiences, in an effort to be helpful, like to pick it apart with theoretical commentary that really has no point other than trying to be insulting. Again, what happened to this thread? It's even called 800+ HP "Coming Soon". It's been over a year and no updates. Where is that 9 sec pass? Isn't that exactly what I said I've seen happen in the past? I said, these threads pop up all the time and then eventually they just fade away with no resolution in the end. Maybe they blew up their engine, maybe they lost interest, maybe they had other priorities in their life. Regardless, it happens over and over again. Ever think about why that's the case? I keep telling you, it's because it's not easy and it's not inexpensive. Again, if it was that easy, it would have been done by now, and it would have been done in this thread/build. You would think the fact that this build never resulted in a 9 sec NSX like I suspected, would support some of what I was saying and as a result you would think that would mean some acknowledgment that my experience and posts have at least
some credibility to them. You would think... But nope, you'll stick to insisting that I'm just a babbling "hater" that has no idea what I'm talking about and keep up with your insulting condescending posts.
So there you go. Go ahead and reply with whatever patronizing blabbering you feel entitled to. Thanks to you, I'm once again reminded not to waste my time in these parts of the forums or bother replying to anything here anymore. But last I checked, when this thread went cold for over a year, it's not like I saw you posting any helpful, informative posts. Seems to me you just like to backseat quarterback everyone else's attempts. First championing onestepx's attempt, now trying to see how mrbozo1 can get there and of course poo-pooing any attempts I have made. What's your build? What tires are you running? What's your 60' times? What's your best times and trap speeds on your own personal NSX? Why don't you start a thread and chronicle your own attempts for a change instead of riding or critiquing the efforts of others? Time to stop commenting on others and put up your own experiences.
