Wow, that's way overpriced compared to building an NSX block. For a complete 3.5L built block from Science of Speed, it is under $20k. Paired with GT28RS turbos, we're talking 600-820 whp easy.
For a mild build for force induction, though, it runs around $10k. I think this is the price to pay to have someone build the block versus doing it yourself. Plus, this is low volume.

I appreciate the package idea as it simplifies things for some but it also limits choice. Labor is so expensive because they want to put in shorties and HFC's. For 320whp, the probably have a high reading dyno.
I spent $5500 and got coated long tubes, motordyne Y pipe, HFC, Tanabe exhaust, pulleys, M370 manifold, AEM CAI, Uprev tuner cable, install, dyno and tune. Should have gave a variable delta from baseline instead of an arbitrary number IMO.

Lol, don't remind me. Instead of doubling horsepower, I gained 1/5th.

I'm curious about motor build... do most people build it in the garage or figure out a way to do a "clean room" environment? Just wondering about dirt, particles, or even metal shavings. Haha I prob won't build one on my own (can only build computers), but maybe someday I'll find a used block to disassemble and clean up for a build on day.
