this SpecV is laying down some pretty good numbers
it would prolly make a good run with a few of the 240's here.

The numbers are really good. It seems that is the first spec v to go turbo. I haven't been keeping up with spec v's, I thought they had plans to put superchargers in ther QR25.

There is a few Spec V's riding around with boost. The link is talking about an on going squirmish between two shops competeing to make the first or best turbo kit (Forced Induction Racing-Travis and SSR).

Travis has many years exp. with the SR20DE that you find in the old school B13 and 200 sx, some run around 400hp. and SSR has a nice kit using a cereamic manifold and polished pipes.

Good thing is that if these cars can get over some of the weaker internals, they can show some nice #'s cuz of their fairly large and tourquey 2.5l engine. on this kit boost starts early and keeps on pulling. The bad thing is they have a 6200rpm redline.

The supercharger was being made by Area 51, but they unofficially droped the project cuz of the money involved. But at least companies like Arias and AEBS are starting to take notice. I really enjoyed my Spec V before I got my 240.

yea Specs arent that bad of a car. i like the torque that the engine provides. i drove my brothers one b4 to japan. i just didnt really like the feel of the tranny. i prefer a regular 5spd over 6spd. but it pulls pretty good. too bad my dad wont let him mod his car because of warranty stuff and it has to last him for awhile.
