i couldnt find a thread on this from the search, so i was wondering if there is a thread on the people who have the setup wheather its stock with just the jrsc or what else people have done to it and what kind of #'s and times you guys have? and do you guys use it for drag racing because i heard there not the best for that? any pics would be cool to

 

Jackson Racing Supercharger on a d16y8 yielded 146WHP..

Turbo is the way to go on Hondas.

 

yeah, turbo is the best way to go as far as making your $ go far. For more ifo though, i'd to the FI section

 

that's peak HP though.
Don't superchargers really do their stuff at the low-mid range of the power band?

 

but the jrsc is more reliable than a turbo and i think it would be a little cheaper to go this way because you can find them for around $850 and there isnt as much hastle as with a turbo

Depends on if the turbo is an ebay special or not. Volvo and Mitsubishi turbochargers can last a very long time.

The gains of a blower on a 1.6 or even a 2.0 is not gonna justify the pricetag. The Cobalt SS and TRD blower for the VVT-i Toyota's are not very impressive, a GSR Civic will hang, if not walk away from them. Home made turbo kits can be made for around that same price, and depending on how in depth you go.

 

go the turbo route, best bang for your buck.

yeah, that's the main pupose of a supercharger....but the fact is that if you do your research and don't get an oversized turbo, then you can direct it towards more low-end power. If you ask me, that's more practical for daily driving purposes.

 

yeah i might as well because i already have a tial waste gate and bov and intercooler with piping and a blitz turbo timer and moroso catch can so i might as well use them right?
