Comptech's Spring newsletter indicates both the TSX and 04 TL supercharger kits are "On sale in May," but the accompanying article states, "actual ship dates of kit may vary."

When did Comptech come out with a SC for the 99 Si? Didn't see it on their website...

It came out after the JRSC, and put out more power. Nicer looking to boot.

Ah... Vortech SC, I thought we were talking about the "Comptech" SC. Btw, the standard Vortech SC for the 99 Si doesn't come with the aftercooler ($3449.95). The kit that comes with the aftercooler costs a lot more ($4722.95). Both in satin finish. Add another $200 for the polished finish.

Doh... rusty I am.

Been out of the loop for years. Comptech, Vortech, sounded the same in my mind. LOL

Why would they do that? This could only cost Acura money. Is Comptech somehow linked to Acura (like Alpina is with BMW)?

Depends on the dealer, but most will if they do the install. How much do you think the labor would cost on that?
