so your saying a fully built fully tuned maxed out k series might have a slim chance to be as fast as a stock z06?

Comptech sold the 500hp supercharger kits under the factory warranty as long as the dealership installed it. There are twin kits available up to 700HP for less than $10k, and big single dual scroll kits available up to 1,000hp for not much more.

That's fine if you can't imagine it, I stood in the infield and watched it happen with my own two eyes. The Z06 gave the NSX the point by (though with his blinker not his finger as mandated on the banked turns by whatever club they were with) as they came off the infield into Nascar turn 1, and on the back straight the NSX put at least 5 bus lengths on the corvette before the braking zone for the bus top before Nascar turn 3. I spoke with the owner afterwards, it was a single-turbo, rods/pistons, caged, 6-speed 2500ish lb car with driver.

If some of you guys cant see that, then good. Please stay here and infest TR and leave my real racing forums (where I found this project, for example) in peace.

I'm simply pointing out that you can make the NSX as good (if not better for many reasons) as the one you posted for less time/money/fabrication. I saw that NSX out run a GT3 RSR between turns 4 and 5 in the infield in just one gear, it wasn't starved for power anywhere in the rev band.

I'm saying swapping a K is fucktarded because the engine it came with is better and can easily be made faster than a Z06.

lol okay i read that wrong.... but thats even a tall order for the v6 that comes in the nsx.... the money you spend to make it just as fast as the z06 you could be spending that on a supercharger for the ls7 and have a monster instead of a mediocre machine.

You see old timers doing the same shit with muscle cars. Fucking them up. Nothing changes with the idiots. Once an idiot always an idiot.

omgwtfbbq! you are relying merely on obeservations of cars being driven, you forget that driver mod lol.

I blew the doors of an STI with my old truck, it was far from fast. But the STI had the I can't shift for shit driver mod.
