Proof of this for 1,000hp? Do you know how hard it is to pull that kind of power out of a NSX motor?

I spoke with the owner afterwards, it was a single-turbo, rods/pistons, caged, 6-speed 2500ish lb car with driver.
And if I had to venture a guess, the Z06 was stock with exhaust and intake. Sorry, but you're wrong if you say otherwise. A modded Z06 wouldn't be passed like that by the NSX. Just saying.

Revs have only a small part in that. Properly tuning a vehicle with limited revs can make a huge difference. That's like saying it's cool to rev to 11k rshared_pm like all those B-series guys, if you're not really making any power up top, then whats the point?

And at the end of the day, it's still an overpriced honda.

You guys are fucking stupid, go look around NSX forums. The idea of a K swapped NSX has been ran around several times because of better weight distribution and more aftermarket support. Would I do it? No I like the C30/32 the way they are and they run good supercharged and it sounds a hell of a lot better than a 4 cylinder. I think its dumb putting LS motors in something other than a Chevy. I've never been a fan of different automaker part swapping.

All I hear from you is "Wahhh, I'm fucking retarded, so I'm going to try and justify my retarded response with another retarded response".

U Mad?

Yep. I miss that old beast. That was the first weekend after getting it tuned to remove the fly by wire lag, adjust the shift points in the tranny, removal of limiter and added an agressive tune.

But back to the topic at hand. I would wager to bet there is a larger after market support for an ls7.

What are you talking about? There is WAY MORE SUPPORT for the NSX. Are you retarded? Also, there is no way that the NSX could lose to a Z06, they are king of the honda cars!!!!!!
