Running at six pounds boost, the NSX makes 329 hp at the wheels, according to Chu. He's only had it at the drag strip once, where it ran a 12.70 quarter-mile. "For me, it's enough. I don't really drive at the track and I don't race. The power is very consistent and really, it drives like a V8."

Injen intake and Mugen "power unit supplier" are about the only indulgences underhood.

"the nsx is pretty balanced from the factory, but i felt it was a little underpowered."
