They are confused with the 04+ TLs.

I'll say again 1320 in Linden will probably be alot closer and they work on quite a few Hondas from what I gathered.

It's through HONDATA. They only do it for their supercharger kits. Those cars (only '06 S2000 I believe if any at all) require a reflash. The TSX for sure and the RSX as well although you can opt to go with K-Pro on the RSX.

Right, I know Hondata did it, but I thought he meant comptech themselves were doing it.

Ron -

You can do this yourself, it's not difficult, it just takes time. Just take your time and follow the instructions. Comptech has made a fairly foolproof kit.

Search Scalbert's post. He has a great 3 step process that allows you to install parts of the system and drive it in between.

tomorrow baby, I drive off Supercharged!. I want to do the install myself, but too bad I don't have the time, I have 3 huge deadlines due for clients and relatives here from overseas, and the kids deserve some quality time, just alot of things. Got the kit, didn't even have time to look at the blower itself, but we plan on re-oiling it before installing.

I Think You Should Go With The Supercharger. Less Head Ache, And Instant Gratification.

Yeah, I got it in, power is so linear, same pull all the way, so it feels less dramatic than the car with vtec kicking in. Feels weird, becasue it isn't the acceleration I expected, but looking down at the speedo I can get an idea for how fast I'm really going.
Almost feels like a 350Z if you have ever driven one, straight torqu curve. I love it, gonna clean the car up and detail her, then shoot some pics.
6 lbs is def in my future, but not right now.
