This just in, 05 NSX's (especially with a couple of mods) can easily cut 13 flat or high 12 1/4 miles.

Doesn't seem all that surprising of an outcome to me...

That NSX should be making something like 260'ish whp (stock they dyno around 240-250) and the s2000 MIGHT be making 250 with a 75 shot.
Possibly
Dumas2k how much power are you making before and after your nitrous set-up?
I never had my car dynoed but i seen people with 75 shots make anywhere from 250-300 rwhp

what mph did he start to pull? how far where you taking your gears out? because i kind of had an experience like that when i took 4th gear out to long the window switch kicked in and then the guy pulled a car even though i hit 5th. but i was always a car ahead until top of 4th. i dont run past 120mph. top of 4th is it for me when i sprayed. i liked 25mph-110 maybe 120.

Thats what worked for me
I didnt use a window switch it would be worthless for me, I positioned my WOT switch to only trigger if I was "pedal to the metal"

I want to say in 5th gear. I will race him in lower gears. Cause when i was n/a i would hang for the first 2 gears. Then he would start to pull.

The guy in the NSX forgot to mention to you that he is also running a 75 shot

Nah, really his Exhaust mods being a v6, are yielding him more then they would for an s2k. He could be netting more whp then we think. Ive driven a friends stock NA2 and they motivate quite nicely, certainly better then a stock S2000. So considering both cars are modded here, the S starting off with the disadvantage out of the box, throw in the driver aspect and anything is possible. I have to say I was initially surprised at the outcome as well however. I was expecting the S to walk away.
