yeah but a comptech supercharger system on an nsx puts them over 400 whp.
AEM FIC works insanely well on most NSX I have heard so a tuning option wouldnt be as hefty.

weight doesnt mean as much as you might think it should when theirs torque out the wazoo.

You should have found a nice quiet, empty spot and tried it from a stop. Different outcome off the line i guarantee.

LOL......sad is racing a truck on a highway/freeway and thinking he had a chance. Trucks have the aerodynamics of bricks, weigh 5k+, and are geared to have most of their torque before 2500 rpm.

Off the line, sure they may get a jump bc of all that torque, but thats when that 3000lbs extra weight will PROBABLY come into play.

Weight doesnt matter nearly as much at highway speeds though.

So weight doesnt matter at highway speeds at all? I'm pretty sure in any top end/speed calculator that you use weight is a determing factor.
Maybe i am just not understanding the post correctly. I hope.
