The bar has been raised! The LoveFab NSX put down 920 HP and 641 ft/lbs of torque to the rear tires last week. This astonishing feat was accomplished by pushing more than 30 PSI of boost to the engine utilizing a custom LoveFab GT45R turbo system. We would have continued higher, but unfortunately ran out of race gas before we could truly max out the setup. We plan on re-fueling and heading back to the dyno when the schedule relaxes within the next month or so to break more records!
In the meantime, we’ve been enjoying the car locally while detuned to “just” 620 WHP. The car is running absolutely awesome after the grueling dyno session. We have a few track events coming up and we will try to get some good video.
I’d like to note the engine has over 20,000 boosted miles which include countless road and drag race events, high boost development testing on the street, and many hours worth of abusive dyno sessions. We continue to perform durability testing on our own cars so our customers don’t have to.
I would like to thank Devin Pearce and the rest of the guys at AEM for providing such great support and for their amazing engine management systems, gauges, and electronics. I’d also like to thank Rob at RPS for making such incredible clutch products and for all the fantastic service! Thank you TiAL Sport for the awesome turbo and accessories! One last thanks goes out to Jim Elkins from Elkins Engines for overseeing the most durable engine build anyone could ever ask for.
Untill then, cheers!

We will continue to push the envelope so the show is basically just getting started. Either way, I would not recommend this setup for a street car or even for most "race" cars, as obviously it's quite extreme.
