Doc, did they recommend the new plugs, or was that a suggestion of yours. Which ones did you go with?

Thanks,
Bill

Why do these superchargers seem so much louder than most, on my friends supercharged NSX there is just a very mild wanning under acceleration. Is that the difference between a supercharger and a procharger? The sound just seems out of proportion.

Dr. Bonz

Multiply by 14.2 and you will have psi.

Yeah, I found that out. Spencer sent me this conversion web site link.

one cm/kg sq = 14.22 psi

I have maxed out at .5 cm/kg sq on my Greddy boost gauge which puts me right at the 7 psi (7.11 actually) boost that the Procharger supposedly puts out with this pulley.

Doc - what happened to you on Sat. I thought u where going to show up at AAM.

I really wanted to see ur ride.

Anyways all of this nonsense about the SC being long is BS. Mike let us hear it and it is 100% a none issue. She sounded sweet!

Have fun

I picked my car up on the Saturday before the dyno day. It is a four hour drive (one way) for me to AA so I didn't make it.

I think the NSX uses a eaton supercharger which is a root type blower. The procharger use a centrifugal ( sorry about spelling) type blower. they have a tendency to be louder. Not to mention that every car is different.

Dr. Bonz how did you raise your rev limit to 7100? In a prior post you said it was raised. I would like to get this done without spending 6 bills for the technosqaure ecu. Thanks!

Altered Atmosphere did an ECU flash I believe, to raise it to 7100.
