The Official SOHC Supercharger thread...

Anyways one thing I have always heard was the raised compression part but NOBODY has ever given me physical proof on this with the SOHC cars. If someone could give me some kind of proof then I would do it and give you guys a write up and dyno results. I am not ruining a head for nothing which is what it would be if it turned out to loose power.</TD></TR></TABLE>
Well if you wernt a noob you would know right? I have heard the same thing as you just like i have lots of other things, does that make you a noob? Why does everyone act like the know everything, i joined this site to learn more. Arent you?

Did you see the LOL or are you fuc%ing blind I was kidding I have helped you about as much as I want. Every time someone helps you, you ignore them, you wanted to look at my bin for tuning and then you post up you are going to use it as your own. Even after I and others told you it would be a basemap at best. But why would you trust a noob like me for a bin map?? I know alot about the charger but I dont know mcuh about the different engine combonations and how that would effect the blower. People say that S/Cs LOVE compression but nobody can show me a dyno sheet or even some life experience.....so what am I to think?? WEB MYTH?

the guys at LHT told me that 10.5-11.5 compression is perfect for the JRSC kits. if you look at any b series kit that the guys at LHT worked on, they are all pretty much at 250-300+whp. they do have dyno sheets to back it up. and i'm going to be running 10.8:1 comp on my new GSR swap w/ intercooled M62.
Ash on the other hand, yes, he is just regurgitating web jargon.

I built a low compression JRSC motor a few years ago, it never made much power, barely topped 200. I eventually turbo'd it just to see what it would do (408 WHP B16 on turbo). I also built a 12.2:1 motor and made over 300 WHP on 8 PSI from a JRSC, but it was knock limited, that compression was too high for 8 PSI on pump gas. My new motor should be done any day now, 11:1 CR, will run 10 PSI from a ported/intercooled JRSC on it.
I will be doing a JRSC install in Feb. I am looking to take the head off to change the gasket. Also I will be replacing the timing belt, water pump, misc. gaskets, fuel pump, fuel rail, head studs, flywheel and the clutch with the install. while I'm in there what else should I invest in for more reliability?
Well as long as its a good running motor you need nothing for reliability. Invest in fuel managment its almost like night and day especially when you turn up the boost.
Also you might want to invest in the hondata intake gasket helps a little with the heat. My car for now is just a OEM rebuild and I have been running the S/C for a couple years now and no problems.

dang man,
I swear, there must be something different about the way roots blowers compress air compared to how a centrifugal turbo does it .
In my mind I have this image of the blower simply increasing flow, whereas the turbo actually pressurizes the combustion chamber.
or something like that,
almost like volts vs amps.
not sure if anyone gets what I mean but yeah... hehe, just brainstormin.

Thank you. So about how much power does the 8lb pully put down on the stock setup?

They both pressurize the combustion chamber, but they work very differently. The main difference (IMO) is that the SC moves a volume of air that is (relatively) fixed in relation to engine RPM, where a turbo delivers a volume or air that can vary widely depending on engine RPM and load. The other difference is selection, it's relatively easy to bolt a turbo that will support a large volume of air on a car, while it's a lot harder to do the same with a SC.

should be empty ports on the back side of your intake manifold

I need a idler pulley. I cranked up my yellow car the other day for the first time after the wreck and my pulley bearing locked up. So now does anyone have any extra's laying around?

Well, cuz it's a S/C thread i thought i'd post this... i've had the honour of driving this beast 4 times before parking it before winter.... let me tell you, i've never had more of an adrenaline rush.
I freaking jumped when my dad told me to go take my friends for a rip.. So far it's got 537 km.. can't wait for snow to melt

sorry man, that's terribly uninformed. my best friend has a mustang that is an absolute porsche killer on track (a real track)

just tell that to the ai/aix/cmc nasa classes
