Hey i'm just curious on what you guys know about forced induction kits for the SOHC VTEC d16 engines.... I might go with a turbo kit or a supercharger but I want a vortech supercharger but i don't think that they make it for the d16's yet.... Just curious on your opinions... TIA

 

Why is it you want a Vortech supercharger?

 

jackson racing has superchargers available for sohcs. greddy, drag, fmax, apexi, edelbrock and some other companies have turbo kits for the sohc. i'd recommend turbo but that's just my opinion

 

Greddy Turbo Kit!

I'm thinking about going for the turbo again.... well instead of the supercharger.... The main reason i wanted the supercharger is cause from the outside you don't see anything but if you're turbo then you see the front mount intercooler.... oh well i guess...

 

just paint the intercooler black......

 

but you can hear a supercharger, even BETWEEN shifts

 

I'm not really worried about the them hearing it... actually i want them to hear it but just not see it.... and does anyone have a pic of a black intercooler on there car..... does painting it black hide it that well?

you seem to go off what you heard more than what you've though out. i suggest taking some time to learn and formulate for yourself, that will yield the best results- whether that measn SC or Trbo.

My thoughts exactly. No disrespect to all the single cam turbos out there.

 

Well i KNEW that it was going to be said sooner or later in this thread... I've got a b17 in a b16 body with 12.5:1 comp. but my question was for the sohc..... THANKS though

Can you see mine?

 

i was thinking about that also but i'm not too familiar with that setup... and is it good for daily driving?

 

the new edlebrock sohc kit looks pretty nice..i dont know the specs of it, but from the pics it looks really complete and nice...might want to check into that

 

yeah i was thinking about that too but i was told by a shop intown that it's to "comercialized" what ever that means and that the rev hard and drag kit is more for performance....

 

Dunno if this is hijacking but...CHEEZEFROG, can you post more pics of your civic from the front ? And what IC are you using ?

 

Can you see my intercooler inside my grille?

 

wow..i cant see ****! =P thats pretty stealth..what kinda paint do you guys use? i have this big o spearco IC on the front...and i wanna kinda hide it. but it has a hacked up bumper and bumper support . how do you guys make it so flush into the bumper? i have an 90 std hatch.

 

damn thats pretty decent..cant see ****

 

WOW MOM that's pretty good.... looks nice i guess i'll just have to do that too huh.... good job....
