no i was referring to cars on acurazine. if you were to look at the "The Modified TSX Gallery" thread you might hurt just as much as i do when i see how much these cars have been ruined.

Well I do not waste my money on lips, body kits, fog lights or even rims. However, I think those things can look quite good if done with taste and style. But then again, I do not care so much about improving the looks of my own car. I think it looks gorgeous and now its time to work on performance
I've had the SC kit for almost 3 years now. I drive the car hard at times too, so I've been really happy with it.

that's good that you don't waste money on that type of stuff. for the money they use on that they could easily put it towards performance and maybe even get close to a SC setup. the car looks great as is. there are few exterior modifications that look good IMO. thats why i was complimenting this guys car

I agree, the people want moar from the Comptech S/C pioneer.
Also, Kenny, did you ever install your autotensioner kit? If not, I'd like to talk to you about taking it off your hands, assuming it fits 6MT as well (once my wallet recovers from the blower that is, HA!)

I hear you guys!
I actually just got my hi flow 520CC injectors and new spark plugs. I should be installing those in the next couple of days. Haven't been driving my TSX as much since I had to wait a couple of weeks for the injectors to come. Hopefully, I'll have them in soon. Will update once I've had a chance to re-tune for the new injector setup. I already have a 3.6" and a 3.15" pulley so I'll be looking to put those on a little later.
Been driving my brother's BMW 325ci. Pretty fun car to drive actually. I'm in the process of selling it, so anyone interested PM me. Once I sell it, I can buy more mods!

Hey Kenny. I have had the S/C kit on for a few weeks now. What I have noticed is that there is a slight jerkiness/unsmooothness to the car when the car is hovering around the 2-3K range. It only happens under very light throttle (almost none)... It almost has an on/off feel to it. Could it have something to do with the cam advance or anything related? I read in one of your other posts that a stock car is smoother because of less flucatuations in power gaps. That is kind of what it feels like. Any thoughts?

Thanks. I thought it was something like that. It is very obvious when the car shifts under light acceleration with the RPMs dropping from..let's say 3500 to 2300. It almost makes the car hurky jerky if you are not using the accelerator peddle too hard.

With the Comptech ACM module, I don't think part throttle is tuned. The Comptech ACM controls the fuel delivery, but will only insert fuel under certain situations. I don't think it has full part throttle tuning capability like the K-Pro has. It drives great when in boost though.
Since going to K-Pro, I can feel a night and day difference in part throttle driveability. This is because the K-Pro is a standalone ECU and you have gives you full control of tuning for all of the different load, RPM ranges, and cam angles.

You may be feeling this because you are going from Vtec to no vtec. If you have enough load on the engine Vtec will kick in at 3000 RPMs. So you're in Vtec when you get up to 3500 RPMs and then you automatically drop out of Vtec when the RPMs drop to 2300 since you are below 3K. When I had the ACM I learned to push the gas pedal harder just like you mentioned.

True. I do try that at times; but as you have stated in the past the car gains speed way too easy. I try not to speed, I need to keep my insurance low. 
The condition happens typically when I am just loafing along. It is explained by your above posts. Thanks!
