What would you ht guys price a full jrsc for a d16 at? Are all d16 head intake Mani patterns the same (non. Vtec and vtec) also what should I look for when buying one? As in it being broken.

dont buy broken stuff.. itll cost more to fix then you know.

itll be better to go boost. more control and options. SC robs and adds power, but for a measly 7lbs for all that work and money, id just go boost and be happy.

your question was what to look for for a supercharger that u want to buy used..

Well, since your asking, buying used parts is a crap shoot. you dont know where its been, used, or if its stolen.

I do know to buy one new will cost 2500 and youll only get marginal gains. So my answer was for the same $$ buying used and getting fuct/buying new, you can go boost and not look back..

Lol u still are totally off the subject... No **** u don't know where it's been and I didn't ask if buying used parts was a good idea. A good turbo kit should run you at least 4000. I asked what should I look for on the sc, maybe something that normally breaks or if this is worn out in this area don't buy it. If telling people to buy a turbo because a a sc only has marginal gains is all you can come up with then why post? Maybe I want a short track car? Or maybe sc's are simpler or maybe just maybe I found One cheap as all hell. I doubt u have even had a turbo Honda.
