Tomorrow is the day.............

I actually take the my CL S 6spd to get the CT supercharger install. Is there any special details or instructions that I should be giving the tech at the dealer before they install it? I just dont want to have to drive back to the dealer for minor problems due to the install since I live about 3 hrs from the dealer. Sterling Acura in Austin will be installing the charger for $700 and will warranty the work and the car. What battery should I get for the car since I need smaller one.

Tell them to SOLDER the ESM connections... It will save a lot of trouble down the road.

Very Important -----> make sure they solder in the ESM connections into the ECU wiring... also make sure they do quality soldering of the connections... otherwise you will have lots of problems with mis-fires, etc... down the road... Also, the SC belt should be tightened properly... to check belt tension, use the twist method... less than a 45 degree twist is too tight and more than a 90 degree twist is too loose. This is what CompTech (Shad) told me.

Congrats and good luck...

You will think you have a completely new car when you get it back...
