0.5 bar of boost from a 60mm turbo, air/water aftercooler, AEM EMS, aiming for 400rwhp

The car is currently making 350rwhp/280rwtq from a 0.4bar gruppe M supercharger... so now a slight increase in boost, the addition of an AEM EMS, and a slightly cooler intake charge.

Here are some additional pics from today, the turbo is sitting in place (not fully secured) but you get a better idea as to its position... also the belts and fuel injectors are in.

Setup looks awesome and that turbo will spool HELLA quick on your setup. If you thought it was fast with the supercharger kit you are gonna be in for a REAL treat even at the same boost level!

Did the shop custom make those tanks and such for you or is this some type of kit?

Also, what car did that turbo badge come off of? You paint it black?

The badge is OEM Honda, from the Acura RDX, I painted it flat black.

The tanks, etc. are from a kit, it is produced by 'HP performance' for the nsx, HP has a good reputation with domestic cars, but there are now around 8 of these nsx kits running around, and they just came out with a kit for the s2000 - they also said they were working on a civic turbo kit.

So where is your car? None of those are it

Sick though, I wish I had a personal garage that had that linup. One for daily driving, one for drag and one for track. What a trio it would be.

My car is on the left, this was perhaps 6 months ago, with a Backyard Special wing, HRE 545's, and Zee's exhaust.

Prior to going 'under' for the turbo the car now has a NSX-R wing, SSR competitions, and a Gtrom F1 sound exhaust.
