Default Requirements for a JRSC for an EP?

I was thinking about purchasing a JRSC for my EP when it is released. I know that for something such as a turbo, I would need a 3" exhaust, no intake basically, etc. What would I need for a JRSC? Would a 2.25" aftermarket exhaust, etc. be fine? Thanks.

Check out this thread over at ephatch: http://ephatch.com/forum/showt...17892. It's
a guy from JR (not sure if they have a rep on here or not...probably do) who's
answering questions about the kit for an Si (specifically). Might want to post
in there...

Exactly George, that's the reason I was looking into it. I would think that the JRSC would be relatively cheaper than the swap also, but if it's only going to be like $500 or something around there, it definitely won't be worth it. I would also assume that they would be cheaper than a turbo such as Cybernation or RevHard, both of which seem to be going for around $3,500 each.

Another plan would be the CRV swap. Someone on Ephatch just swapped the whole engine in (which he purchased for $1350), put on i/h/e/b-pipe and hit 167 hp/wheels and 145 torque/wheels. Thats not that bad for the price I would think. I would still rather have the JRSC though.

Why not do both the K24 block and supercharger? Oh, and an RSX head with Type R cams.
