***The Official JRSC Thread***
re: ***The Official JRSC Thread
I just bought a JRSC + LHT Intercooler kit for my B16a2, will have it later this week.
I'm planning on running 11psi of boost, E85, Hondata S300, Toda replica header, test-pipe, 2.5" catback, adjustable cam gears, and some sort of induction kit(Is Tegiwa's Mugen replica any good for JRSC?).
I live in Europe and E85 is available in almost every gas station here, so that's not a problem.
What do you guys think of this setup?
What numbers do you think this setup will show?

re: ***The Official JRSC Thread
Help with my b18 jrsc plz, when i tuned the car it was at 6psi and ran good for almost 2 years, now its only pushing max 2psi, it rained recently where i live, i was at a red light when it turned green i gave it some gas the car started to wheel hop (for about 2-3sec) i let go of gas it grabbed traction so i stepped on it as the rpm reved higher i can feel how the car got Alot slower, i got a brand new boost gauge when i floor it, it jumps to 0psi then slowly works up to 1psi @ around 5k rpm then when i reach about 6.7k rpm it reaches 2psi but doesnt go past that. I changed the belts made shur they r tight like 5times lol so the belts arent slipping. Any one know what might have caused this?? Please help... Thanks

besides checking for vacuum or boost leaks, check to make sure you boost bypass valve is working as well, if the valve is stuck open, you wont build that much in the way of boost pressure

re: ***The Official JRSC Thread
I mean i did look around and under the supercharger, its not leaking oil from the nose pulley, vacuum lines r all in place, I looked around the head looks like its on good, any other places i can check for leaks?? Sorry im kinda new to this, the boost bypass valve ur talking about does it have a vacuum line attached to it? if so I did pull the vacuum line out and put it back on like 3 times while car was running it was opening and closing, assuming its working, i put in a new wide-band as well, since it was tuned on 6psi and now its running on 2psi so now its running rich which is normal im guessing..

re: ***The Official JRSC Thread
If its running rich on 2psi they didnt scale your boost tables very well. However, you need to check for leaks in the sealing surfaces when the car is running. Easiest way to do this is with a can of carb cleaner, you just spray the carb cleaner around any area where there could potentially be a gap (gasket mating surfaces typically), if there is a leak, the car will suck the cleaner in and cause it to bog slightly (its combustible so it wont hurt your car unless you drown it in it).
The boost bypass valve is the black piece on the back of the manifold, it does have a vac line going to it that should be hooked up to one of your S tube ports.

re: ***The Official JRSC Thread
thanks for helping me out... yeah that was the boost bypass valve i was checking it seemed to be working but ill check again, and yeah ill try the carb cleaner and see what happens... my car was tuned on stock injectors, exhaust, fuel pump, everything was stock, is it possible that its getting to much fuel some how which is causing it to run rich and bogging up at higher rpm? or even with that should the supercharger still be pushing 6psi??

re: ***The Official JRSC Thread
what was the car tuned on? are you still using any of the JRSC equipment, like the FMU and the pressure switch relay?

re: ***The Official JRSC Thread
When you wheel hopped it's possible something broke or cracked .I'd be looking around the intake manifold ,bypass valve ,or any fittings ect... for any possible leaks to be sure nothing broke or cracked or snapped off when it wheel hopped .If the problem began right after that happened .

I would guess like mentioned around 270-290 hp but our numbers are irrelivent. Your hp numbers will depend on a whole lot more than just the setup.
We would recomend a cold air because the jrsc creates lots of heat and you want the coldest air charge, you dont want to pull already warm/hot air from your engine bay from a short ram, Use the AEM 3'' ITR cold air intake or the Injen 3'' ITR cold air intake, they will make the most power.
I wonder has anyone fabed up a water to air intercooler with the there JRSC. Similar to the system LHT uses except you will connect the water to air intercooler unit in the intake arm and run the coolant lines to a front mount heat exchanger just like the race version LHT gives. Run the cobra water pump just like the LHT kit gives and install a resivour and Bam you got a water to air intercooler for less than $4-500 compared to the $3,000 race version LHT manifold upgrade! yes i paid $3000 for my LHT race setup! This is also the same design the vortech supercharger offers for its water to air intercooler upgrade! there's also a straight barrel design to easily plumb in between the cold air intake arm

re: ***The Official JRSC Thread
Does anyone vent their crankcase pressure to a catchcan from the back of the block while using the OEM B18C5 oil cooler clocked to the 9 o'clock position with their JRSC setup? It looks like one of the oil cooler necks will interfere with the hose fitting I'll need to install.

On a similar note, I'm currently mocking up my build and it's going really well. I'm finding all sorts of little things that I need to replace. Better now than in the spring when I'll want to drive it.
