I CANT SIT STILL!!! cant wait, hope this prototype goes to market!!! but the pic is right here in front of me, did i mention that!! it looks sweet!! like no other sc i have ever seen!!!

please show us? who's is it, comptech?

yep comptech, they say "the Accord engine has potential for so much more." they are referring to the 4 cylinder models.

here is the quote:

"While the 200hp V-6 was a significant step in the right direction compared to the smaller 4 cylinders previously used, the Accord engine has potential for so much more. HOw much more, we can't just say yet. Comptech was in the middle of testing its new supercharger kit for the V-6. The photos indicate it has chosen a positive-displacement Eaton supercharger, though that may actually change depending on test results. Note that the supercharger kit employed a long snout to transfer the drive from the crankshaft to the rotors. This packaging allowed Comptech to position the outlet of the blower close to the throttle body inlet. The system also incorporates a bypass valve to help eliminate the buildup of boost pressure and charge temperature under cruise conditions. Expect gains of 65-75 hp (maybe a tad more) and a significant amount of torgue should Comptech elect to stay with the current system."

Is it a pretty standard installation, or does it require other 'adjustments' like relocating the battery or intake? Will the transmission be able to handle that much extra power? Any ETA? TIA!

rmstoico

looks about as bolt-on as you can get with a sc! battery is still there.... not eta mentioned.

blk 97 2.2

Any heads up on a price??

Did you ask if specifically if the kit will also fit our 1st-gen 3.0 CL's? I know the engine is the same, but I don't know about the engine bay dimensions. I remember hearing a while (3-4 months) ago, that they had no plans to try to fit it to the 1st gen CLs.

If it will, then awesome!!!

hougee

ohh man... that will just be tooooooo dope... kee kee... i will not let those RSX 6 speeds beat me!!! keekee...

boarder445

haha, i might keep my CL now!!! i was thinking about trading it in for a new RSX, I hope this is for real, hey ross! thanks for the news, where did the article come from

rmstoico

december 2001 hci (hot compact & imports).

it has a probe with flames on the cover.

and the orange integra inside, he is my friend here in berwick, but alot of the mods he mentions i dont believe he actually did, like the 5 angle job. all i know is he threw a rod last week and killed the motor.

about fitting in a cl, im sure it will, but the front plastic may need modified.

SumkidwithaCL

Hey Ross... get your ass to Staples or something and get that thing scanned!!!!!!! I wanna see too! Im gonna start saving now... screw the rims!

ROoosta

i think i read that at the comptech site.....if i remember it it says it wasnt goin to fit the first gen CL.....was the sc on the CL type s?

rmstoico

i couldnt find anything on the comptech site, but the pic is of the v6 accord, not the 3.2 cl. if they say it wont fit our cars the only reason why that i can think of is the frame in the front of the car, but that could be cut with a sawzall. the pulleys and the battery and intake are all in the same place, and it is the exact same engine. the only differences are minor, the accords have plastic covers over the spark plugs, and a few other asthetic differences. i will go on the limb to say it will fit, even if a few mods are needed. i know for a fact the engine bays are about the same size, even if they werent the only area in question is in front of the motor and around the intake mouth.

Hey Ross when are you going to scan in that pics????

98cl

will it not fit in the 2.3??

Dave

rmstoico

no, its for the v6, totally different engine.

CL SLeePeR

There was a post on the comptech web board a while back and Mike B. stated that it would not fit the 3.0 cL. There was no specific reason for it not fitting but, I would imagine with some minor modification it might fit!

CL-Z

Look at this.......is it the same????.......looks cool!!!

CLS Supercharger Thread

rmstoico

that is the same thing!!! however, the pics i have are in an accord 3.0 (the exact same engine as ours), so i dont see why it wont fit in our car!

CL-Z

I'm sure it will fit!!!


I wonder what the HP gain is on the Type-S??????

cldriver

Ok rmstoico,

Lets see those pics!!!

btw-Where'd you get the article/pics?

CLpower

how is it different then any blower you've ever seen? it's a roots type blower, they are like 80% of all blowers made

rmstoico

most of the blowers i have seen dont have a long rod that extends across the engine from the pullies to the intake.


also, the pic and article is in the new hci magazine. ford probe with flames on the front.
