Yess finally did it...supercharged....car feeels great...this weekend was reallly hot in NYC but the car still pulled hard.

install wasnt hard at all once you are organized and have all of your parts together and a kick ass mechanic to assist.

we knocked it out in about 4 hours and the job is much easier with the hood off.

i used my injen CAI i cut the curve off and cut the mounting bracket and my boy took it to his shop and welded it....looks like a nice CAI for the SC

the whine is crazyyyyyyy you dont hear Vtec or intake anymore just the whine and pull.....on the highway cruising and just drop it in 3rd and it takes off like a bullet.

quesiton is does the ECU still need time to adjust to this blower, i know the ESM blocks the boost signal.

can this car be tuned without a e manage? can they plug into the ODB and modufy air anf fuel ratios

thanks

p

 

and i still used the thermoblock spacers

 

Shiet!!!! Video Video Video! Is this on the 5AT?

 

yup 5AT under normal dirving conditions it shift regular and u cant tell the car is supercharged..even at idle...then when u give it a little more gas to 3k rpm and above...WOWOW pulls u back.

 

Crazy....let's get a Dyno sheet on that mofo too! How much did it cost you?

 

yeah gonna get the emanage first then take it to tune and dyno....price.......everything including install.....$1500

yess yess jaws are dropped

got in luck with this one

 

THe quesiton I have is - Will your tranny take the additional power?

 

that is an awesome price! Where you got it from if i may ask?

 

Well you gotta make a video. Show some launches and on the freeway pulling from a friend's car and stuff lol.

 

Nice!

 

tranny will die not matter what lol....so instead of being scared of things just do it....thats the way i looked at it..no vids or pics yet....gonna take some pics tonight and put them up...

this guy cam up to me and said he has a sc in the bronx because he crashed his car...everything looked good and i picked it up....hes a cool guy

 

congrats. next time Im in NYC ill look u up. I was just there last weekend in Westchester chillin with sum tri state vip folks. But the SC is great and i have the custom CAI with mine too. I was kinda dissappointed that the vtec roar was gone but the whine is VERY addicting. Im in the process of a 6spd swap right now so the blower is off but congrats to you. Also i noticed my tranny shifted alot smoother after prolonged driving after i put the tranny cooler in. Just something to think about. Good luck and happy boosting!

PS: I left my thermoblock spacers on too

 

yeah i got to get the tranny cooler soon...i mean i drive the car once or twice a week....and i dont floor it all the time so it should be good for now

anyone else in NYC area SC

 

o ur good then. You'll prolly have no tranny problems

 

what kind of engine mang system u have

 

congrats man enjoy it

 

Im not running one right now. Just the ESM that came with it. But since im swapping the tranny and plan on making more power with it im on track to get a greddy emanage. I sold the unichip about 30min ago that i was going to use to have it custom tuned. If you tuned it you'd probably get another 10-20 whp out of it.

 

yeah gonna get the emanage and install it then send it off to get tuned...now can this card be tuned without any engine manag system

can they plug into the ODB and modfy things from there

 

I seriously doubt it. The ecu's on these cards are hard to override from wat i heard.
Do you have fuel pressure gauge, wideband AFR gauge and boost gauge?

 

nope i got to make a list of things i need to get...and make a cutom mounting for it

 

okay...u may wana be careful going into boost without having those thngs to look at. The FPR needs to be set at a certian PSI when idle and during boost, also u wana make sure ur not running too rich or leaning out so that you dont get knock or detonation. I'm in the process of fiberglassing some universal pods onto my steering column. I put my fuel pressure gauge under the hood tho, right next to the FPR.

 

from the factory comptech doesnt the fpr come set for the sc?

 

yea its supposed to be set to the correct PSI but sometimes ppl tamper with it and it isnt set correctly. If you arent throwing any CEL's more than likely its set up correctly. Mine was not set to the correct PSI and at boost i was coming up with a 10:1 AFR which is stupid rich.

 

hmmm yeah mine seems to be running fine..i prob have to get the pressure test done...i am goign to order the high boost pulley tomorrow...and install it next week

 

need to see a video and some dyno sheets. congrats on the supercharger.

 

oooo boy! have fun with that

No. You need a standalone like the Emanage. You also dont send it off to be tuned. You have to have the car dyno tuned.

Buy the Boomslang harness to make the emanage plug and play

 

 

pics coming sooon by this weekend...now here is my question does anyone know any good dyno/tuning shops in queens nyc.....i called up NRG tech and they wanted 600 for the tune and dyno

 

Congrats on the super charger, now i DEF need to meet up with you to check that out.....that was my main plan, SC, Air suspension, and 6 speed swapp. DAM I WANNA FEEL THAT PULL BACK.......

 

yeah man its realllly nice...cant wait to feel the pull with the high boost pulley....should be even better. we all should organize a mini meet by cunningham or some soem other park....

gas miles is about the same....when u drive normal it doesnt feel supercharged under 2.5 rpm.....when u go past that the whine kicks in and ur off....when ur on the highway at 80 the car is coasting a little above 2 rpm...only when u give it more gas pass that the charger kicks in....


soo gass is looking good

 

wow..awesome....haha you should change back to stock rims and make your car an ultimate sleeper:P

 

Mechh Engineering at UBC? I was thinkign about going there after I finished NAIT here in Edmonton but said fuck it and went to work. I have a friend that goes there, Marco Mac, skiny asian kid, maybe you know him.

to OP, post some pics man, everyone wants to see that SC.

 

I concur...

 

THat is awesome, regarding to a shop. You may consider RPM. Website, http://www.rpmnyc.com/. They use to do my Civic, they are awesome..if you go in there ask for tim. I'm planning on going there to get some stuff work done next month.

If, I were to S/C my TL-S..thats where I would go. They do good stuff.

 

your going to pay around $400 for a dyno tune.

 

yeah i got to call up rpm and find out and call up some diffrent places to see prices....nrg wanted to much.

i am gonna install the emanage with the boomslang and the high boost pulley...this should make this car and even more beast than what it is now....

pic coming soon...gonna pic up my girls camera

 

i heard rpm is good and i guy called jeff evans...he does good work too

 

Marco....I don’t think I know him. What year is he in? I’m going into my last year.
