I have an email from CT confirming an S/C...I posted the email on these boards somewhere.

 

I have just slapped the Flashpro on Heeltoeauto.com...

Preorder now with coupon code "ilxfp" for a limited time 10% off...only valid til the 11/5 launch date!

 

^thanks! will def order from you guys. I'm getting my bonus check soon. Hopefully I get it before the 5th.

 

quote from CT on facebook
The Hondata Flashpro for the 2012 Civic Si and 2013 ILX is coming 11/5. That means our supercharger kits are right around the corner!!!

 

Nice, must be nice sharing the same platform, motor and everything else with a civic which means you could build a new car with all the aftermarket stuff that will come out for the civic.

 

meanwhile this car looks 100x better than a civic

 

Great news indeed, and I don't even own an ILX.
Maybe one of you stock or basic bolt-on guys can post some impressions and/or dyno results once it's out.

 

I'm ordering mods now...just waiting on that bonus. I'm going to skip aesthetics until the car hits my power goals.

 

Nothing for the 2.0 kinda sucks, especially when there will be so many out there, oh well...
An extra 20 more horses or so would be perfect through a few key mods.

 

What all are you looking to do right now?

 

downpipe, tien coilovers, rear-sway bar, motor mounts (boombas), k&n sri, exhaust (if one comes out), ct-engineering supercharger. You'll be my number one vendor for the s/c, fp, and suspension. motor mounts and intake will come from another vendor that sells 9th gen si parts.

 

Did you see this post?

You should informally email me.

BTW, we can get just about anything on the planet. The reason we need some support is because I don't do a lot of Civic stuff and need some input on what the primo stuff to offer is. Sounds like you have a pretty good idea...

 

well, time to get rid of my 2011 Si, get a 2013 ILX, do a k20z3 head swap, then throw one of my superchargers on it.

The k20z3 head (true DOHC iVTEC) is completely compatible with the engine in the ILX. Just needed a way to tune it. And adding that head should make the car compatible with most of the aftermarket parts available for the 8th gen civic.... of which there are many.

We are back to legoland on Hondas... the new LS VTEC swap? lol

 

RE: SC.

Price? Warranty effects? Reliability effects?

 

Warranty will be most certainly voided with the S/C, it always has. Though, there are some dealers (acura), who if you get the kit installed through them, will still honor a powertrain warranty of sorts. Reliability is yet to be determined, but on the k20s/k24s of yonder, people have been seeing upwards of 50k miles on the car without problems. Obviously, there will be more wear and tear (oil changes should be more frequent as well as tranny fluid and relevant transmission components). I've been researching s/c applications for hondas for a while and it's not til now where I have the income to actually bite the bullet. I don't doubt that CT-engineering will offer several options in terms of boost/power levels.

 

While sharing with the civic theme, Full-race has a turbo kit for the K24 and R18 motors. Want to make some serious power I would give them a call and see if it would fit or would need some minor modifications

 

upwards of 50k miles without a problem isn't even at the baseline of what I want out of my ILX, unfortunately. Give me 100k without a problem and another 100k with small, manageable problems.

But man, another 50-60HP at the wheels without any turbo-lag would be sweeet.

 

well, the thing is, nobody really tracks their mileage with the s/c. I know people who drive them daily who have 100k on their motors, but they didn't put the s/c til like 40k miles on their car. If you drive the car hard every day, you may have issue, but with that extra power, you may not even need to.

 

Ill send you a note regarding this in the AM. Very interested!

 

Mike_si_29 on 8thcivic has over 80k on his car with the CTe blower on it (over 90k total on the chassis/motor). He is running the smaller pulley setup and an aftercooler making over 370hp... still going strong. If you have it properly tuned and take care of it, don't sweat it.

 

are you the mucter that had the turbo 8th civic running 18+lbs of boost? Log squad? Are you still on 9th?

 

We've just listed this up on the website:

http://store.excelerateperformance.c.../i-785038.aspx

We should have these available to ship within 1.5 weeks. Use promo code FLASHPRO

 

yup. I'm on 8th, 9th, and 9thgen. I still have an 8thgen and it's currently boosted on the Kraftwerks kit.
