Hello all. I've been a member of your forum for a while now but this is the first time I'm posting. I come from the v6accord.com forum but I come here all the time to read some of the great info you guys have. I was at Comptech last Friday and I took some pics of the Supercharged 6-speed CLS. I was there to talk to Shad, head engineer at Comptech, discussing about the SC install on my Accord. After we finished talking about my SC, Shad told me that I can take pictures of the 6-speed so I can share with you guys. I know you guys have been waiting for the dyno and I'm here to tell you that they already have a preliminary dyno. Shad told me that they were getting over 310WHP boosting 5.5PSI! And this just right after putting the SC on so he said this is not properly tuned yet. I can't wait to see the numbers after tuning! He promised he will be sharing the final dyno with you guys. He told me that this car was a blast to drive and he even offered me to take it for a spin. I declined the offer since I know once I sit on that 6-speed and drive that puppy, I will never go back in my Accord I see some of you guys have the 6-speed but I'm not sure how many are thinking about getting it. They are looking for a Novermber release so it should be here anytime soon. Anyways, enough of the talk. Below are the pics.

















Hope this info helped!

By the way, the Supercharger for the automatic will be released same time as the one for the 6 speed. Don't quote me on this but I think Shad said that they got 275WHP on the automatic. Not too bad if you ask me.

 

310 !!!!

WOW!!!! I like to hit it!!!

 

Looks very cool......whats that going to cost? $5k or so.

I would be very interested to see how the torque steer is going to be with 300+ hp and low profile wheels/tires. I can't imagine it being that pleasant.

 

Man, there is such a discrepancy b/t the 6sp and the slushy Btw, do you think adding headers to that will still improve 30+ whp? Or is that tested with headers?

 

By the way, your camera has a dead pixel a little above and to the right of center it shows light green in every picture!

 

Good God......I would LOVE to have that, even though it would be 5k or so.....want to start a betting pool though as to when this thing is actualy going to come out!?!

 

Shad said the handling was great on the 6-speed even with that much horsepower. When they tested the Accord at 5.5PSI and was putting down 230WHP (Honda Tuning Featured Car), the torque steer was so bad it was dangerous. He said you better have both your hands on the wheel or else the car will either pull to the left or right. That is one of the reasons why they tuned down the Accord SC to 4.5PSI. Once we have our LSD from Vitek, we should be able to boost up again.

 

Sweet.....

 

i'd like a SC and those rims

 

Nice...

 

i have a boner

 

screw a woody, i just soiled my pants from both end.........:wackit: :wackit: :wackit:

 

310whp? @5.5psi?

That is just sick

 

what would it be for an '02 cl-s, 275 whp?? and when u say whp do u mean horse power at the wheels?

 

I think the HLSD in the 6speed should fight off the torque steer adequately, 310whp untuned is definitely sweet, wonder how the torque is

 

That should be enough to frag my auto transmission! I like it. What is the blue and red anodized hardware just behind the actuator/modulator in the engine bay?

 

Sick.

By the way, what wheels are those? Those babies look tight.

 

JZ: Wheels are OZ Superleggera, 18x7's and 18x8's run $350 at Tirerack.

 

Thanks for the info. I've liked those for awhile but never saw them on a CL.

Hmmm. I sure do wish I had a 6-speed instead of a tranny-replaced automatic. I feel like my car is so delicate now and I'm always worried about overstressing the new tranny. I'm not all that interested in putting anymore money into it at this time.

 

Holy poop!!!

That's just goona rock!!!

 

Does the SC come with an intercooler?

 

When will it come out!!!!!!!!!????????

 

If you look the car has headers already.... Im sure they put everything on the car from Comptech....

 

how come u get so much less power out of the automatic?? i dont understand.

 

That would probably be a rising rate FPR with a 4:1 rate increase, or something close to that. Gotta get extra fuel in there to support the added boost.

 

that can't be a comptech drop, and those rims must be real light.

 

Wow! It's a roots blower!!!!!!

I dumped a roots on my truck, and it gives incredible torque off the line.

I figured they'd put a centrifigal on it (being it has problems hooking up stock!)

Wow..... Just a sec, I got some drool running into the keyboard!

 

I told you guys it was going to be SICK!!!!

Retail on the kits is around the same as the V6 Accord--$4495. I will be doing them for considerably less!

As of my last post about the S/C, I have 17 people on a list right now.....how many more wanna join on now? :P

30V6200HP....If you are who I think you are.....Thanks again for the sale and enjoy your S/C'd Accord---

Stay Tuned Guys!!!!!! The fun starts in November!!!

Thanks,
Dean Baty

 

Automatics (almost) always loose power transfering the power from the fly wheel to the transmission via the torqueconverter...

The torque converter is using transmission fluid to make two shafts meet via a turbine. (the torque converter is the equivalent for a clutch for an automatic transmission)

HOLY DAMN!

 

define considerably less?

 

I believe Dean has said $3999 for the S/C...

 

Actually, I think it was $3900 shipped.....

 

Hey Dean. Yes, that's me. The SC kit looks so sweet and thank you for the good price you gave me. I'm sure you'll do the same for the guys here.

 

No, it doesn't come with an intercooler. They are thinking about developing an aftercooler though. They said once the boost is raised to about 8PSI, the air will get too hot which will then require some type of cooling device. They already have this available for the S2000 so I'm hoping this will be available for our cars soon. The aftercooler will still be a benefit at 5.5PSI so I'm sure we will see more performance gains.

 

I asked Shad about that and he said that those are Comptech Springs and they're doing something called a "raker" to make it look like that. He told me the details but I forgot. I'm sure you can call Comptech and ask them about it.

By the way, this Type-S now has the Brembo brake kit up front with the big red calipers and it has brembo rotors in the back. I didn't get a chance to take pics but it looks damn sweet!
