How are your superchargers on your engine? Any problems and complaints? I'm just curious because I'm looking into buying a SC for my 01 SH. So I just wanted to see pros and cons. And if you street race what kind of cars have you smoted and the ones you've stayed with instead of you gett'n smoted (ie Vettes and Camaros and such..) Thanks

 

No problems with mine, but I upgraded my fuel system and have electronic engine management and a wideband to tune it. If you install the stock kit, expect a/f ratios above 13:1, a recipe for disaster.

Oh, I don't street race.

 

Just for your reference, here is my setup:

Y2K SS JRSC
Hayden 677 tranny cooler
EFI Systems PMS
TE Wideband v1.5
RCE 550 cc injectors
J&S Ultra SafeGuard V2
Hondata IM Gasket
Kamikaze header
AEM TruPower pulleys
Mugen S2000 thermostat
Mugen thermo fan switch
Mugen radiator cap
K&N drop-in filter
Moroso oil catch can
Goodyear Gatorback belts
NGK BCPR7ES-11 spark plugs gapped at .035
VTEC engagement@4400 RPM

What's up Sharky? My role model. Keep us informed when you change the pulley dude, ok?

And I wouldn't street race mine either.

 

Has anybody with a JRSC on a 5th gen expirenced any loss in mpg? the guy on this site http://home.tampabay.rr.com/prelude/faq.html said he expirenced some loss. Can anybody confirm or deny this?

 

Boost = a helluvalot more fuel. I get terrible gas mileage, currently boosting 9 psi, driven hard daily.

 

My current setup:
JRSC@9 psi
Hayden 677 tranny cooler (currently disabled, concerned with possible overcooling and possible drop in line pressure)
EFI Systems PMS w/injector driver
RCE 550 cc injectors
J&S Ultra SafeGuard V2
Tech Edge V1.5
custom CAI
Hondata IM Gasket
Kamikaze header
2.5" Car Sound cat
custom 2.5" exhaust
AEM TruPower pulleys
Mugen S2000 thermostat
Mugen thermo fan switch
Mugen radiator cap
Moroso oil catch can
Goodyear Gatorback belts
NGK BCPR7ES-11 spark plugs

 

Thanks for the help,

yeah, my gas mileage went down as well. nothing outrageous but definately not what it used to be. even at normal cruising. as far as problems. nothing major.

what kind of tires are you running with that setup. i've only seen people post times with stock tires. do you know of any times with drag radials?

ive been thinking about getting BFGoodrich g-force drag radials, if i get a JRSC, and put them on my stock 16" that i dont use daily.....problem is that i dont think they make the g-force drag radials for 16" wheels

 

I just have the stock wheels and tires. I have an SS, so I don't have any traction problems LOL.

 

speaking of the jackson racing supercharger. is there any word on when/if they will come out with one? i heard someone had some fitment issues on the 4th gen but they were trying to work around it. anyone have any word from jr yet?

 

As far as I have heard, they will not be making the JRSC for the 4th gen. There are a few guys who have modified things a bit to get it to fit into their 4th gens, one has a lengthy thread about his on po.com.

 

Yea Ben Schaeffer( ) did one on a Red 4th gen. Basically its cutting out part of your fire wall for the Blower to fit. Then replacing the filter else where, not sure though
