Default Good News

This post is from Hondata from 8th, soorrry if repost.

Ok, we know the members this forum are fairly rabid Civic enthusiasts, but some corrections are necessary. (We should know better by now than to try and offer helpful suggestions 8-; )

The comments were made about one particular K24 setup in which intake headers, K24 and emanage were all simultaneously installed.

My suggestion was not to do everything at once. Start with the stock intake and K24. Dyno and measure the air fuel. Then swap to the aftermarket intake. It should measure the same as stock.

The air fuel ratio is determined by the airflow and pipe sizing around the MAF. There is a variation in aftermarket intakes. A well designed intake will keep the stock air fuel ratio and make more power.

A little more information.

We are working on a programmable system for the Civic.

1) It is our TOP priority. We have purchased two Civics for this reason.
2) It will not be called K-Pro

We know from the volume of email and phone calls the level of interest. More calls however, cannot make the development proceed at a faster rate, so please be patient.

This is good news. My mechanics told me you all had two Civics SI at the shop. I also spoke with Nate at CT Engineering. He stated Doug was working on something using their supercharger (Comptech).

I am very excited to hear this, I have been waiting over a year to take the next step with my Comptech supercharge. My mechanics at Dynospot Racing will be happy to hear this as well, since they do all the work on my car.

Any ETA on a release? Will I need to add a intercooler? Please let me know, I am dieing to spend more money on my SI.
