I haven't seen any types of supercharger where it gives you more than 400WHP.

There're only 3 different types of supercharger for NSX
1. Comptech - 6lb and 9lb kit
2. Gruppe M
3. BBSC-Basch Boost SuperCharger

All 3 of these superchargers will give you approx 330-370RWHP

The only way to get 500 RWHP is Turbo

11.44@122MPH

So I don't see any supercharger that will whine up 460RWHP like you said

Are you guys forgetting that other modifications can be added on top of an S/C? It's not just an S/C. You can have plenty of other parts and have more than 460 rwhp: cams; pullies; intercooler; etc. I don't know what mods he has, but 460 rwhp is more than achievable. He also told me that he has plans to bore out the engine to possibly 3.5L or so. With money, anything is possible.

Saw a white NSX today. Not a new one, but still very tastefully done and very nice.

Went to an Acura dealership to look at an MDX, and saw a new NSX there. Beaufiful! Add some rims on, body kit, supercharger, etc., and it'd be gorgeous.

come on man... it usally doesnt take a collage education to figure that out. the japanese are very smart and they understand there motors better then we do. simple logic, a 50 year old american man has a better chance knowing more about the 60's-70's pushrod V8's than a homegrown japanese man, vice-versa! just like Evilryu said he hasnt seen a 460whp S/C. but the japanese might! trust me, i was visiting japan because my mom is a full japanese... they have things we dont have.. i know....a homegrown japanese knows how to build his nsx. not being racist, but telling the fact. oh, thats why we go(hope you go) JDM instead of domestic brand like APC! sorry if you disagree
