From a perfermance standpoint, how much is 6 lbs of boost to the engine worth? What I mean is what would that do?

 

Are you thinking about raising the 4psi of boost that the Comptech SC is set at to 6psi?

 

I would, but that might void warranty? if u mess around with it no?

 

Unless Comptech offers a 6psi belt

 

I don't know what you have read for the Accord. Is that why you say 4lbs? Comptech tells me 5-6 boost for TL NON Type S.

Now can anyone tell me what that means?

 

They tell me the TL boost is not finalized but will be around 5 or 6. Can someone tell me what that means please?

 

I'm sure they are referring to psi.

On this motor (high compression) 6 psi should be significant.

Have to be careful when adding boost, big factors are maintaining sufficient fuel delivery, detonation control, temp control.

The 4psi kit looks like it is a pretty safe add-on, they increase fuel pressure to deliver more fuel (to make WOT A/F rich enough which keeps detonation in control and keeps EGTs down), 4 psi boost shouldn't make intake temps too high assuming their compressor is fairly efficient.

some before/after dynos showing A/F would be nice, along with intake temps and EGT...to see what kind of margin remains for adding more boost.

Do you know the size of the factory fuel injectors?

If you are considering adding a supercharger, I'd recommend picking up these books by Corky Bell:

- "Maximum Boost"
- "Supercharged!"

another good one is "Turbochargers" by Hugh MacGuiness

These give some good guidelines!
