In the past two months, four ScienceofSpeed Intercooled Supercharger NSX projects were completed. I wanted to share a little about these cars, not only to let you know more about our supercharger system, but to share the exciting results.
1995 stock 3.0L NSX: 400 whp (8.4 psi)
1991 stock 3.2L NSX: 416 whp (8.5 psi)
1991 low compression 3.2L NSX: 472 whp (11.2 psi)
2005 low compression 3.5L stroked NSX: 555 whp (15.3 psi)
1995 stock 3.0L NSX: 400 whp
DYNO GRAPH:
This car has the factory original engine. We completed a tune up (timing belt, water pump, valve adjust) and installed our standard supercharger system with intercooler. As the car had stock exhaust manifolds and exhaust, we also installed a CT Engineering header set and Cantrell Endura Lite exhaust. We also installed one of the new ScienceofSpeed Sport Clutches. This car produced 400 whp at 8.4 psi - a gain of 182 wheel horsepower at the wheels. We performed five back to back loaded pulls on the car to place it under strain to simulate hard real word driving. We were impressed to see the power not deviate by more than 2% - demonstrating the capacity of the intercooler for keeping charge temps down. This car's power and throttle response is really how the car should have come from the factory! Take a look at the above graph comparing stock to the end result. Instand power and close to 100 lb/ft of torque gain at the wheels even as low as 3000 RPM!
1991 stock 3.2L NSX: 416 whp

We had the chance to finish this 1991 NSX recently (a review was recently posted here):

This NSX has a factory original 3.2L engine out of a later model NSX. This car has the new RPS twin carbon clutch installed. This car produced 416 whp at 8.5 psi - it was the car we used for our initial intercooler testing, the results you can find out about here:

1991 low compression 3.2L NSX: 472 whp
DYNO GRAPH:
We finished this car today. It has our stage 2 engine build - which allows us to increase the engine displacement from 3.0L - 3.2L by way of increasing the bore to the factory 3.2L size - 93mm. The compression was lowered moderately to 9.5:1. This car produced 472 whp at 11.2 psi for a gain of 250+ wheel horsepower! This is by far one of the most exciting NSXes I have driven. There is INSTANT power as soon as you touch the throttle. The power delivery is simply unmatched from any forced induction system, big turbocharged cars included. I'll include further comparison information about this in a later post. This car is for a local customer - after we tuned the car, we took it to the emissions station and passed with flying colors.
2005 low compression 3.5L stroked NSX: 555 whp
DYNO GRAPH:
This car was completed by Driving Ambition for our mutual customer in Indiana. The NSX is a 2005. It has our standard supercharger system, intercooled, with a 3.5L stroked engine. I spoke to the customer recently who said 1st and 2nd gear are almost completely useless now. He said this jokingly, but I can understand with the car making 444 lb/ft of torque at the wheels! Thanks to Shad at Driving Ambition for the photos and dyno plot. Driving Ambition: http://www.drivingambition.us
In addition to these cars, Tim recently finished his ScienceofSpeed Intercooled Supercharger powered 2005 NSX in Hawaii and three new intercooled supercharged NSXes are in the works. You can read about Tim's NSX here:
