I dropped my car off this morning at Comptech USA in El Dorado Hills to get the Supercharger for my 5AT. Since I was the first Auto TSX that they had ever seen, they needed to take a look at the engine to make sure there wasn't anything related to the transmission that would prevent the kit for the 6MT from fitting. After the first inspection of the engine, he said everything looked like it would fit fine. This is great news for all of us 5AT owners Hopefully everything will work out!

I know that there are 2005/2006 owners who wanted me to ask about the Supercharger for their models. In talking to Billy at Comptech, it sounded like it basically comes down to how to do the engine management. They are working closely with Hondata nowadays to crack the DBW systems, so whenever you hear news about a reflash for the 05/06, then a S/C should be following soon. At this point they don't seem to know what the timeframe will be though.

Anyways, the guys were really cool over there and let me take some pics. They have a very professional and clean shop. I wish I would have gotten more pics of the machine shop. Oh well, maybe next time.



My TSX right before they pulled it in.

Very nice. Thanks for the pictures. Looks like you scored on the SC. w00t

Tsx536

Thanks gsclifton. Yeah, I know I really lucked out!

Maxboost

Wow, it must be cool to have a 'fleet' of NSX as company car.

GSGOMEZ

That's awesome! Good luck!

Xtremespeed2102

let me guess, your loaner car was one of the nsxs? and if not why didnt you ask!?

Welcome to TSX S/C, population 2
nice pics man, yeah I've been dying to get my camera back from my friend so I wasn't able to take pictures when I went.

Seriously though I love your rims, you thinking about getting new ones and selling me those?
haha if not how much did they run?

Nicky

thx for the pics, droool

joerockt

Awesome! Great pics...Look at those NSX's

fuckleberry

dang those NSXs in the pics look like popsicles

Tsx536

I wish. That would have been the best loaner ever!


Yeah I felt like a tourist taking all of those pics...haha. Everyone was really cool though. I asked them a lot of questions and took a look at the kit they were going to install. I got my rims from Cmf, but I think he said they run about $500 each new. I'm definitely going to hold on to mine though

Your welcome for the pics everyone. I'm glad you guys are enjoying them

SNAP!!!! NICE PICS!!!! you lucky bastard. Sure we don't have all the cost like you do in Cali, but DAMN Ohio sux when you see stuff like this.

moda_way

Um... you need to inform them about JTSo's TB Coolant bypass mod.

Nice pictures Tsx536!
Good luck with the supercharger, I hope everything goes smoothly, I cannot wait for the results since I plan on purchasing the SC for my 5AT.

Type X

they just made and update to their post on honda-tech looking for an 05 AT and MT for S/C's!!

someone go hit it up

dzuy

good luck man. S/C would be nice to have.

waTSX

So, if and when the DBW is cracked, what would that mean for us in terms of performance?

Sorry for the

Sweet pics though. I'm interested to hear the results of the SC upgrade. Hopefully all that extra power won't cause any driveline problems.

Tsx536

Since I have the mod on my TSX, I actually told them about it.
I think they already knew what it was though.


Talked to Nate at Comptech and they are looking for 05 AT & MT's for the future. They don't need these vehicles right away, but would like to line everything so that they will have them right away when the time comes. The engine management is still not ready for 2005, but you might want to jump on this guys so you can be the Comptech vehicle when it's ready.

Here's what they need:
2005 TSX Auto
2005 TSX Manual

2004-2006 TL Auto
2004-2006 TL Manual
2003-2006 Accord Auto
2003-2006 Accord Manual

They don't need these vehicles for Superchargers necessarily, some of the vehicles are going to be used to fit prototype parts on.

LOL that is EXACTLY what I was going to post.

Thanks for the pics Kenny!

Tsx536

For the 05 owners, it would mean the same performance gain as the 04 Supercharger. They would probably use the same tuning for both models since the engines are identical. On Sho-one's TSX, CGTSX2004 calculated it to be 287 hp at the crank and 222 lb-ft torque. I should have the same HP at the crank, but less at the wheels since I have an Auto transmission. I guess the 5 lb. boost that the SC is running is suppose to be moderate, so hopefully everything else will hold up fine :crossfingers:


Thanks Zee. You have a house now though

While you are sitting on your comfortable couch watching TV, I will be sleeping in my backseat

No problem Ry. I'll make sure to keep you posted!

Tsx536

Haha. Thanks! When's your 06 gonna be here?

CJams

I just nutted! NSX's and talk of 05 hondata with SC is like Jessica Alba in front of me naked saying, "I want you so bad right now!" I can't handle it!

BTW-Great pics!

jmathew34

updates????

Tsx536

Got my car back today. It's running great!

I'm going to a party right now, but I'll post my dyno and impressions soon.
I got a 1 1/2 hour drive ahead of me...

rmpage

With bated breath. Also, I demand pics, a sound clip, and dyno STAT.

jmathew34

also, if you could give us details on what fluids(tranny, coolant, etc) that comptech changed out on your car??


can't wait for VIDEOS/pics/impressions

drkangel348

sho-one

The blower itself has it's own oil and they said it would prob require change at 50km, my coolant was a little low when I got it back so I had to add some of that. Ad far as changing any fluids I doubt it.

sho-one

I mean 50k miles

Tsx536

Just an update. I'll have my stuff up tomorrow guys!

I'll start a new thread with pics, dyno, and my impressions. I also have a few more pics of the Comptech facility that I'll add to this thread.

My Auto baselined at 166 whp and is now putting down 223 hp at the wheels (whp)
