Nice picture of the CRZ!

 

so you dont need to tune the motor after this install? hmmm seems that way unless i read it wrong

 

Correct! All you do is have the Hondata flash installed and thats it!

 

What about us poor folks in SoCal that have to keep these on the streets...CARB approval? I actually have a customer interested in this, as long as he doesn't have to remove it to smog it

 

We never get anything good..

damn smog laws

 

 

It is going to be carb approved there just waiting on the official word

 

I take it it's from Jackson's website (damn firewall....locked down like Fort Knox). Thanks for the info Dave

 

Yeah its in the FAQ on there. Since you can't see the site (firewall ftl ) they have 3 kits: one with no engine management, one with a reflash by Hondata (I'm assuming this will be the CARB approved one), and the last with FlashPro.

 

so what are we talking about here, taking the 1/4 mile time from a 17.2 to a 15.5 ?

 

LOL i'd like to know too, cause it all sounds great, and even with a pretty steep price tag i'd LOVE to pursue getting a CR-Z now with that kit but yeah, it'd have to be decently quick...

 

yeah 50 hp 50 tq great. but are we still talking about a mid 15 sec coupe here? i have no idea

 

Another fantastically overhyped product from oscar jackson. 50hp and 45tq....IF you have your car dyno tuned by a professional and ditch all of the included hardware that JR gives you. lol I love reading the catalog from the early D and B series JRSC kits, it claimed 55hp for my b18b, yet when i installed it i barely gained 15hp, it was drowning in fuel from the FMU they include, and it was retarding the timing 15 degrees from all the dizzy settings and IAT trickery they included with the kit.

 

Thanks I'll have to kick one of my boys on the computer at home and check it out.

 

lmao so true. all the good chargers go on the v8s and jet skis

 

nice
