Default Finally going boost!

Well my Ej w/a GSR is FINALLY going to be boosted! I know what most people think about the JRSC but it's the best option for my needs. anyways, I was just hoping to get some words of wisdom from any of you guys that have installed one to see if there are any "tips or tricks" to make the install move along smoothly and quickly. Also, anyone with past blower experience feel free to share it.

Thanks!

J

dude, did you not see the avatar!? lol, yeah i guess i could have it moved there. I'm in a 94 civic so i just figured I could get info from someone that may have put the charger into the Ej chassis. but w/e. i guess any info is good. Moderators, please adjust as seen fit. Thanks!

Umm did you think about getting a Hondata IM gasket? Keep the heat from transferring as much.

When you get out of trial status, go to the FI forum and they will have plenty of tips and stuff for you. The JRSC is a great idea. Most people are turbo sacswingers.

As for increasing the boost, you might want to hold off on that until you understand how that engine will respond to the excess heat transfer.

Buying an intake manifold gasket will help you greatly. Password, Nextgear and Hondata are companies that make them.

-edit-

you should be off trial user status.
