Re: Who has the highest HP JRSC ITR. (Rguy)
I spoke with a guy at Landspeed racing. He said he has seen high 200's from the JRSC. It can be done, but how many have done it. It seems alot easier to get better numbers with the turbo. I had around 225 hp with the stock motor, I/H/2.25" exhaust, a Fields V-Tec controller, 8 lb pulley, and a few other goodies. I am in the process of putting my motor back together which consists of a GE sleeved block, Arias 9-1 pistons, Eagle rods, Hondata 4b, custom 3" exhaust, 11lb pulleys, ported and polished head, and maybe a very small shot of nawz. I know I will need something to cool down the charge. If I get about 275 hp, I will be happy. But you guys are right, you will probably hear a psssst in a few months.

Re: Who has the highest HP JRSC ITR. (Batoutahell)
At first, all I wanted was a slightly faster than stock R. It was all that I wanted for a little while. Then the "bug" bit me. I wanted to go faster. I went from 5.5psi to 8 psi. Then that got slow. I am just trying to see what I get out of this thing before I possibly go turbo. Like many others, I never intended to go this extreme.

Rboosted717 had what, 265, 270whp on his JRSC ITR. Definately meets your goals if you're talking about 300 *crank* hp.....for 300 *wheel* hp, turbo is the way to go.

Well,its no B18c5,but i managed to get my 00 Si to 219/146 with the JR crankpulley upgrade,and some support from Landspeed.That there was good enough for easy mid 13s letting off the gas.Turbos are fun,but im a diehard JRSC fan,and will buy their products as long as i have a car they make them for.

what Rob said.
As for what SGT said, we'll see after the NHRA season is over and I have time for my car.

Re: Who has the highest HP JRSC ITR. (sgT)
well you should know the answer to this one.
When you do R&D work and test and tune products and setups that knowone else has done or has come close to, you gotta spend time on hitting that goal. Yeah you can go cheep and just buy a turbo setup and tune it ok to hit those numbers, however many people do that and I just like to do different stuff. Doing what everyone else does is boring IMO. I'd rather spend more time, etc... on trying my own stuff out and getting good power from a setup that has not been done.
In the end fast is fast. Who cares how you get the fast, just get it.
If getting the fast the way I did is unrealistic to others, then it looks like I achieved my goal. Doing what others can't do or won't do.

Re: Who has the highest HP JRSC ITR. (Rboosted717)
let's hear the intelligent response...
here's a question.....two ITRs, both with say ~250whp. one turbo, one JRSC. Now would the JRSC be easier to drive on the street than the turbo because of how turbos come on low? ie a snail that spools at like 3500 would be kinda tough to drive around i would think, compared to a s/c'd car...
just curious

A local guy has a turbo GSR. I have a jrsc powered one. We were both running 6psi, except he was cooled. At the autoX, I'm typically a few seconds quicker. At the dragstrip, I'm about .250 seconds quicker. Now at 9psi, hondata tuned, with a whole host of other mods, I guarantee that I will be even quicker than him on both the straight and autoX.

How about a GSR(jrsc) vs GSR(turbo) story.
