FX Motorsports development heavily modifies the oil pan by adding wings to increase the capacity and installing the STMPO baffle to prevent the oil from sloshing away from the pickup under cornering G loads, which is a big problem for NSXs in long duration right hand corners.
With new valve guides and a little cleanup work done by Portflow Design, the head is nearly stock. The stock C32 head flows well and it’s not really cost effective to extensively port it for a street turbo motor. Surprisingly FXMD’s record-breaking race motor uses a similar level of head preparation.
As you can see, most of the modifications that FX Motorsports Development has developed for the turbo C32 are ones that are done to fortify the engine for boost pressure and for long term durability and reliability. Most of the power increases come from the turbo system. Stay tuned, in future installments of Project NSX, we will look into the turbo system, suspension and brakes.
