Default Turbo NSX at Sebring

Well over the last few months I've been fixing a turbo nsx that came to me w/ a slew of problems with its original love fab turbo setup. It was really pathetic what came on this car, for the money spent, what a huge loss. We've basically redesigned the whole system, and now its finally track worthy. It is a very fun car.

A few clips at sebring raceway. Figured some of you would enjoy this.

Sorry the audio in car is not good at all. My video editing skills arent great either.

Uh R888 Toyo's AREN"T street tires BTW! Just about every racing organization considers them R-Comps.
Kit looks very nice , Any idea what kinda lap times she was turning? I'd figure that kinda power and R888's with decent springs should be a sub 2:15 lap which would be very respectable.

lol i guess i should have said DOT tires. are they competition tires, yes. but i still consider them street legal tires.

we havent timed the car yet. still working on dialing in the suspension, making sure we keep the engine coolant down.

we're running the car at 6 to 12 psi depending upon what gear you're in. The 600 pulls was on higher boost (fine for street, but track we run less as the turbo puts out too much heat to run it on that much boost for extended periods of time)

We've seen about 147 mph on the back stretch at sebring so far.
