Thanks

your gonna get lots of views, but no responses to this, cause everyone is gonna click to see if you have news of one being made, only to be let down and realize your just as curiuos as they are.

sorry i dont know of anything like this myself.

 

None out there, you have to get custom made one.

 

Comptech is working on one for an Accord. Unfortunately it's not a high priority for them or they would be devoting more man power to the project. Mikeb@comptech said maybe by Sept they'd have something. I believe that as much as I believe that AEM will release the CAI RSN.
Promises....promises.
What gets me is that Comptech built a SC for the S2000 first. Come on guys!! A car with a 2 year lifecycle gets a SC b4 the Accords/TLs/CLs????

It was mentioned back in the days of ha.net that if they do make one it would be over 3k.
Thats alot of money for a preformance mod. I am not sure if I could justify it to myself unless I was making some crazy money.

 

It's not only the cost of the SC but everyone needs to take the tranny in acct as well. The stock tranny wasn't built to support a SC.

agreed, our tranny would need a lot of work or perhaps a complete replacement if more power is added...

Is this the same for Solara's? I don't think that TRD made the supercharger until after the Solara was released. I thought that the super charger was a complete install kit? No tranny work?

I'm not a car buff... and I'm not sure I understand this. Why isn't the stock tranny sufficient for a SC? ... ?

Thanks

Solara's come in 5 speed manuals.

Also their centrifugal supercharger only netted a pretty lackluster 50 peak hp. (for 3-4 grand?!?!) Granted The TRD Solara does 0-60 on the order of 5.8 sec, the car is faster, but it hasnt changed the nature of the vehicle, nor made it a street monster, like 3-4 grand worth of power mods ought to.

Also, I know of an Accord Tranny that's taken about 220-230 hp at the wheels and is still running fine. And I would say the accord tranny is substantially weaker than ours. Go on HA and ask em...

all I know is that my tranny makes some pretty scary shudders when getting off and back on the gas in 4th or 5th gear at fast highway speeds...It may just be the TC locking and releasing but it certainly feels weird, not like anything I have felt my car do b4...

I installed the TRD (Toyota Racing Development) on my 99 Tacoma. Gave a 70 HP increase!! As long as it was installed by a Toy dealer, on a new vehicle, the factory drive train warranty (5 yr & 50 or 60K miles) remained in effect. I have had no transmission troubles and don't see why I should. The Tacoma is heavier than most cars, plus has 4 wheel drive, so should more stress on tranny with extra power(less wheelspin). Any auto tranny that is designed to go >100k miles(read all Jap & German cars) should be able to withstand an extra 100+ HP

 

Actually, the domestics are know for building the best auto-trannies. This is why GM Powertrain makes the new 5-speed auto's for BMW (5L45E ??) and Volvo uses the 4T65E FWD unit. Ah, the old Turbo 400 trans, 450k miles on a work van with no signs of stopping and never was rebuilt...

In fact, the automatic transaxle seems to be the weak point for many previous Honda/Acura (and Toyota as well). We just hope that these old issues have been resolved, but no one has really pushed the power limits to determine the weakness, Yet.

 

I would certainly like to
