Hey I have a 99 Civic Si with a jdm b16a swap. Does anyone know of any twin screw supercharger that's compatible with Honda B series engines? I saw a video on YouTube that The Smoking Tire posted and the guy has a black USDM Integra Type R that was twin screw supercharged and I'd like to do a similar set up. Any ideas?

Are you sure it was a twin screw and not a roots? Twin screw + reverse rotation engine = vacuum production, not boost.

Watch it end up being a USDM R with a JRSC on it

Yep, exactly. JRSC works just fine if supercharging is your thing, but let's be honest. Turbo is better

May have been a roots I might be wrong. I'll rewatch when I get a chance and get back to you.

Another_Si_Guy

Fill me in on what a JRSC is?

Jackson Racing Supercharger. It's an older kit that was made for some Hondas.

ASG post up that video you watched. I assume it's on youtubes.

Another_Si_Guy

Yes. That's what it was, a Jackson Racing kit.

Yeah, that's not a twin screw, that's a roots.

Those can only be found used, and you're lucky if not only do you find one for sale, but one complete without missing essential parts.

Jackson Racing discontinued the Eaton style blower more than 5 years ago

Yet another reason I prefer turbo over supercharger.

I wish they made more carb legal turbokits. stupid commifornia.

Easy solution: Don't live in CA. One of these days, you people are bound to realize you're living on the wrong side of the country.

If you can't get over the cost three words: Women, weed, and weather (thanks Kendrick)
Awesome scenery /topography here too

Still waiting for you to list something that you can't get just as good, if not better, and cheaper, on the right coast, with less traffic, a lower cost of living, and with how much y'all complain about droughts and not getting any rain to the point that wildfires break out, I don't think you can even try to claim weather. There is really zero reason to live in CA aside from "because it's CA doe." Y'all are just brainwashed.

Sorry man, but year round we have weather that's nearly always 70+, In the middle of winter when everyone else is buried in snow or freezing their asses off we can have nice toasty 80s or 90s, or just the mild 70s. Traffic? Yeah depends where you're commuting too and when. I leave for work at 7:30 and get to work before 8, it's about 30 miles away and I only deal with mild traffic depending on the day.
Weed here's impeccable, everyone from out of state tells us that. And compared to a lot of the states around the topography is a lot more interesting here, plus we have the beach ;o

But it's all good I'm moving to Oregon soon, have had my fair share of Cali but most people who move away always come back

Kraftwerks maybe???

Which is a centrifugal kit, and at that point...just get a turbo.

LightningTeg

Try to find a kit used. Im sure they're out there.

Yeah, i kinda agree, it's way more efficient to use expelled exhaust gasses to add power vs having to use pulleys. Unless he's doing some kind of auto cross and needs a certain power rev range better suited for a supercharger I guess.

I had a JRSC on my EM1 years ago. At first the supercharger whine was cool but after a while the whole experience was meh. I sold it and have been NA ever since. If you're set on going FI then get a turbo. Even a low boost set-up is worlds better than a JRSC...just my opinion though.
