Lobuxracer just hit the nail on the head boys and girls. Money is the key to speed the faster more horsepower you want to make the more money you have to spend. 4 ways to make over 500 horsepower from cheapest to most expensive.
1. Nitrous oxide direct port starting at $1500 up not including labo
2. Supercharger 10k not including labor.
3. Turbocharger 8k to 10K similar cost of S/C but twice labor.
4. Fully built motor aka Novel $$$$$$$

I dont mean to troll, but i do own both cars... one could buy a GTR, do a few bolt ons and be done with 500+awhp.

SC kit is a bargin for most IS-F owners, just do it.

That may be true but not on stock block thats for sure not at 11.1 compression.In order to get twice hp you may be looking at nearly twice amount of money. New forged pistons and rods etc in order to be safe, like Lobuxracer said speed cost money.

Much more concerned than you probably realize. Have you ever been in the mind of a Japanese auto engineer lol? There's a reason why Honda and Toyota tend to be the most reliable cars in the world. Also, out of many of the aftermarket companies out there, the Japanese ones like Toda, HKS, Trust (GReddy), etc., tend to have the better/more reliable products.

I ran the Toda A3 cams in my K20 for 30k miles with absolutely no issues, and I'm still running their valve springs (80,000 miles), and the motor runs flawlessly. I have no doubt that Novel's engineers bring the same attention to detail and engineering excellence to this motor.
