Default 852HP S2000

I just recieved the 7/05 Super Street issue and on the cover is a 852 HP S2K. Very interesting will be reading that article today.

Just a heads up, and if it is a re-post sorry.

I am pretty sure that it is a custom color more in the orange family. The interior is blue and I believe the first rendition of it was Suzuka blue. This thing is definity over the top.

This the type of orange you're talking about? If so I think there's a far greater chance that it's putting out 85.2 rwhp than there is of it putting out 852rwhp. Wouldn't surprise me if the owner or mag made up

that's more than likely projected HP, and at the fly... I believe nothing that high without a reputable shop's dynograph...

AmuseAP1' car. Nice car with a lot of goodies. Infact last time I spoke with Chris he told me he was shooting for 300hp all NA with his new Toda ITB/built motor setup. Thats his old setup.

BTW you have to remember with these magazines, they will ask you what you have and they get a tech sheet with mods. Some people say they have things that they do not at the time but are just not installed and thats ok. But you do have guys that say one thing then you see the actual dyno sheets and its lets say 200 hp off. I am not talking about AmuseAP1' car. It was on NSX prime.

This car was with dyno sheets around the 650 hp barrier if I can recall.
