Hey all,
Sorry if this has been mentioned in previous posts.

I'm jumping ships from a 9th gen si CT-E supercharged already to 11-14 TSX. I believe all the 2011+ Si and TSX uses the same engine.

Will my civic ct-e kit bolt up directly ? Any modifications needed ?
Will the auto transmission hold up for the power ? I will be buying a automatic car.

Thanks

Here's a pic of my si.

Pretty sure you need a different manifold, and pulley/tensioner system. I think the manifold support brkt is different too. And I think lastly there is a harness that you don't have to splice in the TSX that you had to do in Civic. Can't quite remember though.

You can just buy mine though if you want.. Save the time, enjoy the same experience.

Thanks, I might message Ct-e to find out exactly. Thanks for the offer, your car looks well kept. Unfortunately I’m looking for an automatic car.

Thanks

You'll never get a response from CTE. You should contact Marcus from HeelToe. He will be your best bet for answers.

Are they still offering the supercharger package for the 2nd gen TSX? All I've seen on their website is just supercharger for the 1st gen.

I think they are, because, CT-E said the kit i have on my si is similar except for some misc parts differences. The blower is identical.

Sup guys, I recently bought a CT- E supercharger from Heeltoe, I’ve been reading Joe’s build and this thread, I just want to clarify some things. First of all, I was thinking going stage 2 from the start, Btw I have wagon with 75k miles, so far I know I will need a bigger injectors ( thinking of DW 1000cc), fuel pump, smaller pulley, an aftercooler, spark plug, especially Hondata flashpro. Am I missing more stuff? Also where can I get DW 1000cc injectors that are direct fit and PnP ? and do you guys recommend Merc or IMT aftercooler? And also do I really need to use a 1 step colder spark plug? And if yes what are you guys using and what number is it? Also the most important question, since I have 2012 Wagon and there’s no base map for it and My buddy and I will try to install everything, is my only option to after everything is installed is to get the car towed to my tuner? Thanks

Send ssjoeboe9 a pm. He logs in once in a while.

Outside of the engine related parts, I'm thinking you'll need a transmission cooler as well. There will be a fair chance the stock 5AT goes south on you.
As for the map, have you contacted CT-E?

I have a question for someone who's already purchased and received the supercharger from CT engineering. I purchased mine through heel toe however there is not a parts list. Does anyone have a parts list of what actually comes with the SC kit?

I'm currently running an Ingen short ram intake, RV6PCD, with RV6 high flow cat back, high performance 2.5 by 14' resonator to calm the sound down with two 3.5 Ingen exhaust installed. Basically air mods. I need to know if there is anything else that wont break the bank that I should be getting.

I can upload a complete parts list that comes in the CTE package but really it's just supercharger components. If you want more HP go stage 2 with higher flow injectors, 2.95" pulley and an aftercooler. For even more flow, buy a new SC inlet (I think VIT might still sell, Merc still sells, and there may be more?), and even more flow RDX throttle body.. but honestly I don't think the throttle body is necessary. I had Injen intake, and RV6 downpipe with the "test pipe" and I was making ~310whp.

Have fun!

Just noticed hitting quote instead of quick reply will actually show what comment your replying too. A parts list would be nice, I confirmed with Heel Toe that I do get injectors. The one other question was if I get a belt, I really want to get a Gatorback belt. I saw your post where you were sharing a link but it was not working for me. I saw some kits with belts pictured but when I watched an unboxing on you tube I did not see a belt. August 1st is the new expected ship date provided by Heel Toe, I getting excited

Your stock belt will work (as far as correct diameter). I went with gatorback once I reduced pulley size. I was getting some slippage. Once I switched it was good to go. Yeah you get new injectors.. But stage 2 you will need even more flow (they provide DW injectors now I think 500 something.. can't remember. When they supplied mine, they were still using Hodna Modified 780CC, so I didn't need to upgrade when I went stage 2)
