turbo or supercharger ?? I was just wondering what you all think about the two options (pros and cons of the 2) I plane on doing some auto cross with the car and maybe a few runs in the 1/4 mile plus drive the thing everyday! any input will be great thanks y'all!!

 

so..

do you have an Si or a base?

 

well I know there's a few people that have done the super already (i.e. type x, etc)...

But the tuning issues for a turbo in the new civics have yet to be solved as far as I know

 

Do they even have superchargers for the 06 sedans (non-si)?

 

sorry guys I should stated that I have a 07 4dr SI. there are a few SC's for the SI's comptech, jackson, and 2 more that I cant name right now but I heard of a companie called redline or something of that sort that is coming out with a SC soon. I heard that people are going to sell the SC thay have now to get this one. I know that the SC are bolt on with little problems but turbos need and innercooler down pipe and a good bit of tuning. superchargers are limited unlike turbos so I think Im leaning more towards the SC..

 

I have an 07 si sedan as well, from the little bit of research I have done so far i am leaning towards the supercharger as well. Just saving my pennies up. You will want to get the re-flash as well.

 

Oh yeah, have you found any SC's for the 07' SI FA? This is one possibility that I found:
STAGE 3 RedShift Twin-Screw Supercharger System (305 WHP) - 2006+ Honda Civic Si, RSX/RSX-S (Special pricing until further notice. Shipping expected approx. May 31st.)
Information is not very specific though and is just over 5K...

 

Here's an email I got from J/R...

The K-Series Rotrex supercharger kit is still in design stages, with a completion date sometime Quarter 3 2007. The first kits will be for 06-07 Civic Si and 02-05 Civic Si, with additional applications for other K-Series vehicles (i.e. K-Series w/ Electronic Power Steering).

Our new K-Series race header will be released around the same time.

Thanks for your time and interest,

Comptech went out of business. If you can find a S/C for sale and you plan on donig it some day, just buy it.

And SC &gt; Turbo for a DD in my opinion. More torque down low instantly is just nice to have while putting around town.
