Finished up the install of the SC this last Saturday.


I can't believe how hard this thing pulls and I'm only running the stock pulley. The additional torque is all over the powerband. I agree with what others have said. It is like dropping a larger motor into the car. It's so much fun to drive Traction is really a problem now but we all know the stock tires suck already.

My only issue is that I've got a harmonic around 2,900 - 3,500 RPM. I've got an appointment w/ Comptech on the 10th so they can check it out then. Other than that, the install was clean and fired right up with no issues.

I'll be dropping in the Catback Exhaust this weekend and the Toyo T1S's soon thereafter.

 

dam so how much horsepower that thing generatin' righ now?

and the superchrgr. cost like 5000G's right?
is the car stick or auto?

 

I'll get it Dyno'ed on the 10th. I hope I'm 300WHP but time will tell. The SC can be picked up for less than $4K. In my opinion, it's well worth it.

2003 6MT

 

Stock pulley should put you around 290 whp... HBP would bump that closer to 320.

Congrats on the install, looks great. Definitely get the exhaust. The sound is crazy.

 

I also highly reccomend you get the gauges to monitor what is going on. Many people have had their FPR fail causing a lean condition that could cause damage after extended use.

I have the part numbers for the gauges I purchased if you'd like. They match the silver face of the stock gauges quite well. I'd also reccomend the Mugen Cooling modifications as well. Even with the added heat from the S/C my temp gauge is one bar lower than before the S/C was installed.

 

Blown 6 speed= YUMMY!

 

now, you gotta take me for a spin!

 

I installed the Mugen mods with the SC. I'm not sure if I want to go with the gauges. I like the clean interior look. I may have to relent to protect the investment though.

How much did the gauges and pods run you? Did you go with Boost and Fuel Pressure?

The exhaust is sitting in the garage. Can't wait to see how it sounds with them on.

 

You got it

Let me put the exhaust and tires on first. We'll even see if we can get Jatt out.

 

Looks super clean! Congrats! did you run a dyno before you put the SC on? Just would like hard numbers on actual WHP difference. Looking into setting up 00'TL-P w/ SC...

 

uber sexy

 

you lucky dog.

 

i hate you so much



if only they made those for 1st genes

 

they do, its for the accord v6. several cl owners had/have them on their cars

 

nice, im sure youll have fun with that!!

 

Looks great !
Who instaleld it ? How long did it take ?

 

Welcome to the club bro, its about damn time.

Glad to hear everything went well the install and that your enjoying your car more then ever. Can't wait to see some dyno/track #'s in the near future.

 

Drop an H22 and install a turbo like Insyone. You won't be dissapointed.

 

congrats, hbp is a must though

i hope u could be the first 6mt guy to get some #'s with the sc in

 

Do you mean at the track?

6spd S/C Dyno

 

thought i was gonna have to move this to ramblings and add *NWS*

 

^

 

wow,that looks nice...congrats man

 

Congrats, I knew you would like it.

 

I thought the same thing when I first read it .. I was like

 

congrat! very nice!

 

It's about time Bro

Now get some sticky rubber, Toyos are awesome in the wet also.

 

your engine compartment is almost as clean as mine....

enjoy.... I am really happy with the kit.

 

thanks for reminding me. need to clean mine up

 

Don't wait long.... I'm coming up next with the 6MT S/C

 

Thanks for the replys everyone. I look forward to driving this beast whenever I can.

For some reason, the SC has messed up my gas gauge. It seems to be dropping a lot quicker than before the install

 

Thanks Matt. Sad part is that I spent a lot more than you but with your 100 shot, I'll still be checking out your tail lights.

 

Did it myself. I took my time with it to make sure that I didn't miss anything. I probably spent between 15-20 hours total working on it. Working on my car is my therapy so I was in no rush and enjoyed the time.

I would agree with Scalbert. This is probably easier than the header install but more detailed with more steps. Everything is very well laid out and fits like a glove.

Sorry - No dyno before. I'm not sure how well they do on the TL-P but I would think you could add more boost due to the lower compression. I'm sure you'll enjoy the added HP and torque.

 

I've been itching ever since you posted your install. You're right - I am enjoying the car quite a bit. I'll hopefully have some numbers to report next week.

 

sweet!, thats nice!

 

I've got them in the garage and will be putting them on Monday or Tuesday.

Available Wednesday the 10th at Sacramento Raceway??? I've never gone to the track so I hope I don't embarass myself too much.

 

only if khmerr doens't start a fight with me... lol hey khmer what happen that day man, i was coming towards you to talk to u but then next thing i know is that u park the car and the fight broke out and some one punched me back of my head and i'm like :wtf:

anyways i know both sides so i'm like stuck in middle.

 

Congrats mang
