How to get the most from a S/C
I am looking for ways to make the most of my blower. I have an 06 mt, I am all stock and not making the power I was hoping to. I have pro cats but the shop that installed the blower said they wanted a 1K for the install and said the car will never smog so I held off. Any help or suggestions would be great.

wait for the hondata tune is your best bet. Get the ATLP J-Pipe and a good exhaust. I would go for the e-shift cats, they are carb certify and members have passed emissions. Also you could try the AEM mod to the charger.

I am not sure how to do the AEM mod, I have looked at pics of other members engine compartments with S/C and can't tell what is going on. Also if anyone knows how hard it is to remove the cats and put the pro cats in because ,I paid $1200 for the S/C install, and $1000 to put some cats in seems like a lot.

I bought a 98-02 honda accord 4cyl cold air intake, cheap on from ebay and also a 90 degree silcone 3" hose from ebay as well. I cut the intake at the right bends and put it together.. took me 30 min tops.
Here is my custom intake
as for installing the cats. since you already have the S/C, you'll need to take the blower off to install the front cat, the back one was a PITA. If you can't fabricate or install your own intake. Don't even bother installing your own cats. on a level of 1-10 on difficulty. 1 being easiest and 10 being the most difficult. intake is 1 and cats were 7 or 8 because of the pain in the ass factor.
