Revhard makes a bolt on turbo kit

icantthinkofaname

yea i just seen that now . I want to stay away from turbo, just b/c the heat and strain on the engine is not a good thing. I understand that when i build it, it can hold up but i still dont want the strain on it. I am kinda lookin for a nice S/C kit, thats why i said vortech b/c jackson does not add that much HP

The vortech is as far as i am concerned a turbo and if you are willing to go vortech and not jackson then go turbo. or i would at least go jackson over vortech. you have lag with the vortech. the jackson will make up for the lack of hp with not having lag...... But GO TURBO

The HamsterBall

if you're worried about stress on the engine from the turbo, you could build up ur block with stronger piston/piston rings, and arms, and iron-sleeve the cylinders, so it can handle the stress. if you're going to tear open the block to bore it up, you might as well add those stronger internals. so get the revhard turbo.
good luck.

dot this Promo

good idea, turbo bad idea, super charged

the vortech is belt driven just like the jackass racing supercharger, their is no lag. if your looking for a supercharger look at the procharger, it is the first intercolled supercharger, they make it for the 99-00 civic si and the acura integra gsr. I think power output is like 225 hp to the wheels and 160-170 ftlbs of torque at 9 psi and 91 octane with just the supercharge, nothing eles, and it is good on stock internals...... the good things about the supercharger is that it is self contained so no taping your oil pan (so you dont have to worry about oil starvation), it is carb legal, and it has a patented friction reducing drive (I think they call it a bering within a bering), and it is complete with fuel management and everything you need to get it to work right out of the box, go to http://www.procharger.com to check it out. it is one of the best kits you can get way better than vortech. And I know i used to want the vortech but once i saw this one and read the info about it i was sold right away. im saving for this supercharger kit as we speak.

the procharger sits too low for my liking. By looking at pictures i'm afraid of stuff hitting it as it's so low, like at the bottom of the fender if I recall. It's also not the first intercooled supercharger technically. It may be the first air to air intercooled but the vortech's aftercooler is basically an air to water intercooler system and the vortech came out before the procharger. centrifugal superchargers function pretty much like a turbo so there is some lag, while roots type sc (jrsc) there's hardly any lag but there's other issues with it (tip in detonation, heat issues).

where have you seen pics of it at..... i was just wondering because that is one thing i havent seen, the procharger is the first front mount intercooled supercharger, if the vortech is ((aftercooled)). what is the diff between the vortech/procharger and the jackass racing superchargers they both belt driven, the only diff is the vortech is atached by a long rod

You sir are an idiot for posting stupid remarks like that. Why don't you try to make a constructive critisicm. Atleast say why you think those choices are idiotic, and try an help him. Thank god there were no people like you when I needed help.

Anyways go with the skunk2 cam gears, and if you do want to bore it out, then you should really think about getting sleeves. Also, a supercharger will put about the same stress as a turbo. Good luck.

here's some pictures of someone's procharger setup , also front mount intercoolers = air to air intercooling. I'd be afraid to drive over anything with a procharger, especially if you're dropped

you have ALOT to learn.

stay away from any form of forced induction (supercharger, turbo, nitrous) untill you know what you are doing.

Thats procharger is a nice setup

Holy **** that's low! I don't blame you for being worried about hitting something, that looks very vulnerable

I agree with Kamin...I was turboed for a year and a half, and I still don't think I know enough about the stuff to do it over again...

Best advice I can give, is to research everything to its fullest extent before you decide to do it...and I can't stress enough how important fuel management and control is, if you don't upgrade that stuff...don't even mess with it!!!
