Default 375hp 10,000 rpm V8 Ariel Atom...
Check it out.

From the guy who designed and build his own awd Hayabusa-powered car, here's an Atom with a 375hp V8 made from fusing two Hayabusa heads. Weighs less than the 4-banger Atom and revs to 10K. If only I had the money.

Sounds like the engine that should be in the NSX.

That is a really sweet engine. Wasn't there an article about it being developed on the website of the people working on it? Now where could it have been... hmmm

I think it may be this Powertec unit that goes into the Radical SR8.

Powertec RPA V8
