Hey as a seller like you I opened an account with my local ACURA dealer and they carry them. I get a 25% discount and they have them in stock most times. Call them and see if they stock it.

If you want let meknow and i can see if they have it here locally for your ride..

I'm not getting I'm well aware of Matt's times. I said I was the quickest and fastest S/C'ed CL/TL.

225/45 Pirelli PZero NERO M+S on stock wheels. '02 CL-S

What the hell are you talking about?

There's no catch. It's still a faster time and trap speed than any S/C'ed CL-S has been able to beat.

My 6-speed car made 40whp more than my automatic with the same boost level and on stock exhaust.

Not 'turning' on anyone, just stating my opinion, thats all.

Dont take anything personally, its just that you are relatively new, and people on here have been doing this for a long time. Whta seems like new & exciting to you has been done lots of times. Just maybe try not to seem like you or your car is something spectacular. It is quick, no doubt, but its not like its setting any remarkable times.

Like I said, come back with some 13.6's and I will take back at least some of that constructive criticism.

Which even on my stock'ish 6 speed were lame as far as grip goes, so those tires are not that grippy.

I'll bet Steve's old 5AT had just a hair looser converter than normal, which allowed it to get into peak tq faster without breaking traction.

Steve do you remember what rpm it would lock up at the track?

ask any racer...any real racer...it doesnt matter if you win by a mile ...ah never mind

how bad ass would it have been to have me you and matt go at over and over at the track or street ...BTW matt one day i snaked an open line in my cold air intake and had a friend crack the bottle ...OMG ! my car pulled soo hard in 3rd ...it was pushing us both back in the seats

you can try dude, I tried all the Comptech dealers, Excelerate, and even my dealers that sell our wheels all the time, can't find a single SC kit for my car or the Accord. Let me know via pm if you can find me one.

BTW, I'm enjoying all these posts, entertaining stuff to hear all the speed freaks debate and conversate.

With the blower I typically left from idle. No pre-loading. I experimented a little but no higher than 1,500rpm. My 2.000 60' was from leaving at idle.

All Mine

Damn it. All this track talk and blower this, and nitrous that... I now need a second job again so I can afford to be a track junkie like you guys.

My 15.4 @ 91 MPH is making me feel really :ghey: right now.

I give you guys mad props on your track times. You guys are putting up some incredible times. Just plain sick. Just curious though, are any of your CLs daily drivers or are they all weekend cars? Reason I ask is because for the same amount of money or less for a SC or 3.5 conversion you can buy a Stang, Camero or a late 60's - early 70's muscle car and be in the 13s pretty easily. That's why I'm wondering if these are not seeing the street everyday. Either way those times deserve a .

Mine is daily driven. I really need to get my beater out on the road.

mines is a daily driver, i need a beater. At 91k now and want to make it a weekend/track car when i start spraying at the end of the summer.

CLS6SpeedNupe

Im sure that site isnt up to date. Call them and see

If I could afford to have a weekend car and a daily driver I surely wouldn't still have the CL as a weekend car. While it's fun to see the car reach it's highest potential it's never going to be as fast or go fast as cheap as many many other platforms.

2CLean

Yeah, but anyone can make a big displacement, pushrod v-8 fast. The fun of import racing (including the little Civic 4 bangers) is the science and engineering involved in making a small displacement engine fast. I think we all know it would be a helluvalot easier (and cheaper) to begin with a different, domestic platform...but where's the fun in that. It's a lot more rewarding IMHO. Mines a daily driver, and I'm a former CRX/Civic/Teggy ricerboy. Although my last '94 Supra modified single turbo was anything but a ricer.

If I had to choose between only a 3.5 or SC, I'd go with the SC. However, there is another alternative.... and it looks good too, perfect for your show quality car and will perform better than it looks.

Ok, so I think I found a SC kit that has about 40-50k miles on it. The price agreed to was $3500 shipped with gauges in the pillar and the Low boost pulley. what do you guys think?
Good deal or too many miles?

Paclark01

Bad deal... I think Comptech recommends service at approximately 70K miles on the charger, so you might have 20-30K miles of actual use if the condition is very good. The seller should take some $$$$ off the price.

JBlueCLS6

iTrader: (2)

The charger is just recommended for service at 70K miles but doesn't mean it won't last much longer.

Depending on whats coming with the pillars that can alone cost quite a bit.

I know myself my Fuel Pressure, Boost And AEM Wide Band gauges alone were around the ballpark of $650-700. If its a custom gauge pod add another 100-200 bux.

I'd try and knock it down a few hundred bucks myself. Also when you get it change the supercharger oil. You can buy it at most GM dealerships at like 8 bux a bottle. You'll need 3-4 of em then make sure you properly reseal.

Me and my friend J over at "The Lab" are going to do the install, and he is planning on changing the oil and inspecting the SC to make sure it is fine. I'm itching to get more power, so it's either this or a brand new one once that comes available.

MSW 6SP

Tell Jae to return my phone calls, i have a list of mods for him to install.

Sorry if this is off topic Ron just had these pictures from Nopi i took, thought you'd like to see. The dude in the pic with the chick is my home boy, i didnt get in this one :-(, anyway if you remember we were/well i was the kid askin all the questionsa bout the cls turbo and how i have a 6speed and i was basically asking you a million questions because i was surprised there was CL'S even there....!

Is that first girl pregnant?

iTrader: (1)

I've heard new kits selling for approx that price.

What are the gauges? Gauges could cost $250 each new or they could cost $25 new so that factors into the price.

6sp_03

i dont think so lol :-) shes was pretty freaky though..

All Mine

No. She was just fat.

<--- Helped with booth.

Thats me in the pic above right in the Background with my hand in the air. She was a damn freak in person, she had a really accesable personality, lol.

Anyway, we're gonna be doing NOPI this year too, hopefully we will plan ahead and get a better, more decent looking model.

6sp_03

Yeah! do you remember us at all? we came to the tint like twice a day....we basically lived there..Lol yeah she was very accesable seemed like. Yeah i will be coming again this year too probably asking you a million more questions and hopefully getting you to make a deep dish rim! :-)...That girl actually gav the dude huggin her her number she wanted us to come to her HOTEL .....NO CAN DO BUDDY...she made it a lil too easy...scary easy, itchy easy lol. But Ron what happened to the production of that turbo i took a pic of under your tint at Nopi? never made it to mas production??

All Mine

Yes, and no. It's pretty much in full production.

6sp_03

rondog

iTrader: (1)

That was NOPIGUY's car and turbo kit, ask him about it, or shearch his posts, I think there is one for sale by ThinJim in the Black market if you are really interested.
And I do remember you a little, we saw about a million people that show. Def recognize you if we see eachother again. later!

NiteQwill

It's nice to see all the old school board members on this thread.

So Ron, did you go with the S/C?

Less than 2 more months until I get to drive the CL again, I have a few thousands of miles to catch up on. And probably some new 19" RJ wheels
