I seem to remember you also having a bad block awhile back Ethan, you've got terrible luck.
Steven, tell us what combo you and Lar are putting together....

And it's like a vicious circle, that gets me right back to here. NSX is sold only a few days, and I already want another one. (hell this one is still in my driveway, the shipping company hasn't come yet) I'll never win against myself and my car battles.

I said that because his car doesn't run...hence why the Bronco could beat it. 
There's a difference. I knew it would blow up. Was more intentional than anything else. Pull all available power out of it that's possible until it explodes, then move on.

1600cc injectors, a few fuel pumps, custom intake, custom headers, SP74HO (950HP+) turbo temporarily until he can get me a SP82HO (1200hp+), LS1 coils, New block from Toyota, stripped and completely built. NA head with upgraded everything, reground cams, pullies, new balancer, etc etc etc. PERSONALLY I don't even know all the parts that are going in yet, just what I've already ordered. In a couple or few more weeks, I will have ordered it all, and will have a better list of exactly whats going in it. Some stuff I'm still researching, such as the tranny. Most likely I'll switch over to a GM auto tranny, the SP400 auto, something along those lines. At that power level I don't want to mess around with shifting.
