I also heard rumor of a possible v-8 version for the NSX. Not sure how I feel about that considering Honda's have always been based on smaller motors (kinda feels sorta domestic to me having a v-8 in a import). But the possibilities for horse power and torque is quite interesting.
That said though does anybody know what the engine output will be on the newly modified v6 for the hsc. I personally hope honda is able to boost its horse power and torque at least to stock level that is higher then the vspec skyline or supra tt. A 350 plus stock NSX I think personally, would leave alot gasping for air. But I doubt Japan road regulations allow for such a thing, but one can dream.
Check out the News and Rumors forum. We've had the V8 debate a couple times in the past (do a quick search) and the overwhelming concencus is that Honda will never produce a V8 outside of a racing application. The next NSX will undoubtedly be a V6, as will the next Legend.
