Vance,

Nice looking chick...Any chance for a Group Buy on a Hookah. I had a nice one that seemed to have "gotten lost" by the moving company when I moved into my new house:frown:
 
VANCE IS MY HERO!!!:wink: :wink: :wink:
 
John's Turbo NSX flyby, launching from a steady rolling speed. Clearly very...fast. Camera make it look slower than it actualy is.

Unfortunately too dark and not enough road.

This is the video of test ride in the Turbo NSX. Too bad there were no road for John to stretch his leg. The combined weight of me and John is about 400+lbs I think.

My impression is that it is FAST even at just 7psi. I be very surprised if it is "not" already faster than my NSX. The power delivery is very much all at once at around 4000~4500rpm. Making me miss the turbo a lot. I highly recommend this HP turbo kit if you like to add at least 100~200 additional hp.

2nd gear roll, outside of powerband. You can hear the wastegate a little bit even though it is not venting to atmosphere. Dumptube routed back to downpipe/exhaust.

fwiw, the car was measured on the dyno at 7.9psi, the stock spring that came with the wastegate resulted in 9.5psi... I believe this boost level is very similar to your car's measured boost level... it would be interesting to compare them on a dyno back to back, the turbo should be more efficient, but your headers are closer to equal length.

Also, the wastegate is vented to the atmosphere, there is no dump tube attached, just an open wastegate.
