so my corsport parts and new tranny fluid came it. Luckily it is friction modified so i guess that part number is good. The brand is Acdelco so i guess they switched. ill let you guys know when i install all this stuff. Im probably going to wait til the catback comes in to knock it all out at once.

sorry been slammed with finals, yea they changed the name i did some research on it. Its the same stuff. I just installed my XLR8 Catback today and it sounds sooooooo gooooooddddd. It has a tiny bit of rasp at 3k but ill see what it sounds like after i break it in. I also got my Domed Decalz CF inlay which was very good quality. Only thing left is my tranny flush when i change my oil and installing the Corsport stuff. Ill update as soon as i can, if not ill see you fux at IA!!!!!!!! Btw im selling my OEM jpipe, cats, and mufflers on the BM. Any a sony cybershot camera my bro gave me if ne1 is interested.

fit just fine tbh bro just have to basically glue the part above the fog lights where the dealer drills a hole into the front bumper install that sticky 3m bracket to pull it back. I just finished my timing belt and water pump maintenance at Honda dealer, replaced all the stuff I needed to since I hit 100k miles. It goes to paint and body on Monday. And once it’s out the comtech SC goes on.



bullcity_ua7 on Instagram follow me if you wanna keep up with my progress fellas. I made the insta just for my cars rebuild

so my build is practically done sorry i havnt been keeping up with az like i use to but i do want to document and put out there the data i got from running a comptech supercharger on my 6spd ua7. This way the next person who goes thru this shit show of a build will have some guidance. First of all i wanna thank acuratlbuilder who actually reached out via my ebay store and he helped me from beginning to end with my project. the CT SC kit i had purchased off fb turned out to be a 01-03 cl tl kit mixed with the 3g kit. it was basically a frankenstein kit. with that said it was the absolute most complete kit ive seen. Regardless the guy lied and went ghost i disputed it on paypal got my money back and kept the charger cause he never replied until months later. now with this kit i had 2 elbows to connect to the intake manifold with. 2g and 3g. so no issue there, first big hurdle was the inlet to the supercharger itself was designed for a 2g. luckily converting this kit wasnt hard for me once i was on the right path and knew what i had. so i cut drilled and totally redesigned the inlet to the blower. next i added 3.7 adapter with a 3.7tb. 2 months later i basically finished.

i had the battery bracket and slim radiator overflow tank so i DID NOT RE ROUTE my battery like everyone told me to do. i jus altered the bracket some and used self tapping screwed to mount it with a 52r yellowtop. next the radiator hose i took the lower oem hose and chopped it up to go over the blower. not the best for heat but had no other choice. took it to the dyno and put down 325whp/290tq. this was on the stock SC pulley 3in diameter boosting about 2.5lbs. i then ordered a 2.9in pulley and currently boost about .3 to .35bar with no issues.so 4-5lbs. i havent dynoed since the new pulley but it feels alot faster.

mod list-
comptech supercharger
p2r manifold spacer
p2r thermal gasket for intake manifold
p2r 3.7 adapter and 2x thermal gaskets
custom cold air intake
lightweight crank pulley
hondata
rv6 precat deletes
endless v3 jpipe ( which is extremely restrictive and i do NOT recommend buying this jpipe for performance or at all tbh)
endless v2 catback exhaust with xlr8 resonator welded on
ported lower intake runners
intake manifold spacer and 2 thermal gaskets p2r
2.9in pulley made by pulleyboys
ktuned clutch master cylinder
ktuned clutch lines
xlr8 strip stage 2 clutch/flywheel combo with lightweight aasco flywheel
egr blockoff plate
think thats about it....

car currently has 104k miles on it

to keep up with the build follow me on IG at bullcity_partsllc
