Has anyone modified the Vortech blower to fit EF's ? HELP?
I have two 91' Civic HB's. Both did have ZC's in them. But I turbo'd the one and blew it up after dropping a valve. So I switched to B series and dropped a B16 in. the other HB I have with a ZC is just semi-modified and just used as my Daily driver.
But I'm not going turbo again cause it was just a big hassle and alot of headache's so I went for a drive in my friends S/C prelude and complete changed any thoughts or ideas I had about superchargers. I'd like to get the Vortech blower cause it's the closest thing to a turbo ( which I do love turbos ) but they don't make a kit for EF's ( duh ).
Now I have heard of people modifing the Vortech kit to fit onto EF's with B16's in them. Is this true or possible with little work. I mean I know I'll have to change things but if's it's going to be a big headache when it comes to the things I'll have to modify in the kit to work I'll just get the Jackson Racing blower. Also IF I do get the JR blower do I just h\get the kit for the 99'-00' Si B16 since I didn't see a kit listed for EF's with B series ? Thanks.

I have the jackson blower.. i love it. I can't see having the vortech and having so much lag.
get the jackson. for a b16. SI or type R kit..its all the same.
BIG THANKS TO keebler65 for the writeup that helped me, many others and probably you if you go that route.
