Have you tried calling Comptech and asking them?

If not, i would check out an Acura Dealer to do it if you bought the charger new so that it will be warrantied without any issues... Call a couple in your area and get some prices...

There is a memeber on here from Pittsburg, CA who had one installed this year too i will try to hit him up for you

Hello:

Member from Pittsburg here. I got my SC installed from the Acura dealer that I purchased it from, Escondido Acura near San Diego.

I have also had work done in Sac at a place called Driving Ambitions.

You will love the SC. Hondata is working on a reflash.

There's a shop in Brisbane that did mine, R Crew, but it might be a little far for you.

Hey Chris80i


I called over there yesterday and talked to Chuck, he sounded a little unsure about the install. I am new to the fourm so I have not heard of Team Showcase yet. Hit me with your email because I am not sure I should put my # on here. Thanks that would be awsome if you could talk to your tech. I am thinking Excelerate will send the cahrger out soon. I can't figure out how to get what you said to appear in my message so that why is not there.

I would recommend Driving Ambition. It's owned by Shad Huntley who did a majority of the R&D on the Comptech SC. He also has Ryan working with him who did the Tech work at Comptech. These guys know the kit inside and out and in my opinion will give you a great install. Once you walk into his shop, you'll have an appreciation for the quality of his work.

well i tried to post of tech3proformance info but the thread was deleted because i am not a vendor . i am just a acuraziner who was trying to save folks money on install's... if you need teins, tires/mount/blance, suspension, engine management, turbo's, s/c, motor swaps, tuneup's using all oem fluids/parts in less req: something diff, my tech can do at a great price i talked to him and he said he'll / with min of 3 s/c installs $600 .... if you need parts he can order at an ok price if he can't get it then just bring it and he'll install it...

so anyone in the bay area can go there just pm when, who, part, contact info, and i'll contact him he just called me today to post ....
