It sounds bad and looks daunting, but just stay away from open flames and it'll go fine...I was worried about that part too but it wasn't too bad.

A lot of RSX owners go into the fuel tank to replace the fuel pump or bypass the stock FPR, so it's not uncommon.

good luck!!

The SC will fit fine on a 05 TSX but the only problem is the engine management. You will need an 04 ECU for the hondata supercharger reflash. I have an 05 TSX as well with an 04 ECU.

Supercharger Regrets?

Due to the SC's high cost, are any supercharger owners regretting their purchase?

Do you guys think the supercharger is worth $3,800 bucks for 50whp/30lbs/torque?

Just looking for honest opinions.. I'm torn about purchasing it. My birthday is coming up in the middle of May and my girlfriend is offering to give me some money towards the cost.. probably the cost of installation.

Thanks in advance.

Is it worth getting the SC, yes. Is it worth the $3800. No. I think for the amount of gains in both hp and tq is not worth $3800.. It should be more like $1999. I'm pretty sure other companies are going to compete with Comptech and come out with their own supercharger or turbocharger, i.e. Jackson SC, HKS, Greddy. Possibly cheaper in price with higher gains. Again, I don't regret getting the SC. I just felt better dropping $3000 for the Volk Wheels w/ tires then I did for the $3800 for the SC. You're paying more for the name. That's my opinion.
