nope, not until this fall, because Jackson Racing is in production, and that is the estimated release date now, and instead of being the regular $3400 it will now be in the 4-4500 dollar range due to the hondata reflash that is included. It will happen this fall sometime though!

If they make a kit for the EP3 too that costs the same price that you are claiming for the RSX DC5 then alot of poeple will be extremely disapointed. Suppsively the supercharger they will be releasing for the k20a3 in the Si and base RSX is only porducing around 180whp. That is a big disapointment for a 4k upgrade.

I hate to say this but what has jackson racing ever really done for the honda/acura market with their superchargers, mods. The new rsx header is impressive, but unfortunately Jackson Racing has always been satisfied with giving the consumer a 50-60 whp gain for their 4 grand and say it was worth it. The civic never gained much out of the supercharger, the prelude responded to it wrong, and the integras responded decently, but once again these are the same kind of gains that Jackson Racing have always produced, and never recieved many complaints, why change a bad thing? Another point to be considered is that the kits always meat smog regulations for all 50 states, that is there claim to fame when it comes to reading their site.

HyTech Exhaust is working on an intercooled supercharger kit, look for it to be completed within the next 2 months.
