supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
alright...heres my next question....if i want to supercharge an LS/VTEC motor..which one do i order it for...the LS motor or for the one that is for the VTEC head ? and will the belt fit the same if i choose one over the other?

Re:supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
why do you want a supercharger? there gay..a smaller turbo will hit full boost just as fast as a supercharger.. anyway..since superchargers bolt on the head, u need the charger for the vtec head that u buy..b16a b18c whatever

Go turbo man.
Go with a small turbo if you want fast spool up like a supercharger.
But it will die out in the higher RPM area

Re:supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
see im going to keep up with the big v8's and a small turbo wont provide the high rpm boost i need. a big turbo will but i need something to give me something more off the line...damn the luck

what you need to do is get a huge turbo, and a vortech centrifical supercharger and a stand alone ecu. If you really want to get cocky add a wet 150 shot setup and run high compression..... yeah right

"Turbo Lag: The complementry head start you give an opponent during a race..."

Once that mama jamma turbo spools up, and your shifts drop back down into boost, no little supercharger is going to do crap.

thata baby, superchargers for life!

go supercharger, ain't nobody catching up once you're that far ahead unless you're racing a endurance race.

superchargers rule the street... beware.


badass. i want one.

The boost is variable and it goes up to 24 psi with about 17 psi at around 3,000 rpm. Many prototypes have been up and running for more than two years with stock engines. It is not boost that kills the engine, it is bad tuning and detonation at the wrong place/time.

Before the IC were added, the B16A was making over 400 hp, the B18C5 (Type-R) just under 400 hp. These engines have more than 200 ft-lbs below 2,000 rpm and the peak torque number is conservatively rated at 350+ ft-lbs.

Many people wonder about this. From a engineering point of view, turbos make a lot of sense. They make use of otherwise wasted heat and energy that normally goes out of the exhaust pipe. Theoretically that are more efficient than SC. T.O.O. like and have worked with turbos before (lot of experience in CART), but after much thought he feels sc will do the job right - that is, 11 second time slips with full weight, on pump gas, with cat intact. Full street legal trim basically. Main reason he didn't use turbo was because the stress it adds to an engine that was not designed for turbo. Factory turbo car has a thoughtful cooling system, and the cylinder head and engine block has the necessary features for prolong exposures to the intense heat present in turbocharged engines - such as stainless exhaust valves, different valve seat material, proper cooling around the exhaust ports...

Disregaurd the oldone's supercharger, because that thing will never come out, and sometimes larry can speak out of his ass, lol..

But to the point, Superchargers + 4cyl hondas = ---- How many fast hondas use superchargers? hmmm, thinking.... thinking... None! why? because they suck, and turbochargers are way more effiecent and can produce more power than what your engine can take. Dont get me wrong, the Vortech kits are neat and stuff, but a turbokit is just way easier to do and alot cheaper.

I have drove several GSR's with Superchargers, and all I can say, is that I was very dissipointed..

i know a girl with a JRSC on a civic ex, she ran 13.7@103mph

someone ot to be able to make one like larry's. and acually produce it. 400hp 350ft-lbs tourqe on stock engine? pretty good if you ask me.

i'm sure these superchargers can put out too much for any stock honda too. the JRSC gives superchargers a bad name, they're homorific kits.

adding to supercharged list:

As far as street cars come supercharges are pretty ------ cool.. to have say 10psi at 3000rpms is pretty cool..

i agree with poorman, superchargers and nitrious rule the street.

Re:supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
wow 10psi at 3k...i could easily do that if i was runnin 10 pounds

anothercivcSi 04-15-2003 02:15 AM

Re:supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
that girl probablyl lied to you..her boyfriend prolly ran a 13.7 at 103 in his trans am...im sorry but a JRSC in a sohc civic EX is gonna be running low 15's maybe high 14's but i doubt it.

Re:supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
lol OEM supercharged cars are all FORD's except for the grandprix \, which is a v6 i might add and the austin.

grandprix GT = 200hp
grandprix GTP = 250 ...only 50hp? that's crap!

Re:supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
superchargers are for high displacement V8's..they work really good on those, but for littl engines turbo is better, because it's more efficient and can make more power than any supercharged inline 4.
Go with a T3/T4 hybrid that will give you what you need.

J-SMITH69 04-16-2003 01:02 AM

Re:supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
cadalic (spelling) and other buick cars are supercharged.

the STS or whatever the old people pimp mobiles are supercharged, and pretty fast.

ok enough of this....im turbocharging the ---- out of it...thats all there is to it...i dont have enough money for a super

Re:supercharged LS/VTEC ???
 
I can tell you this A JRSC'ed EX only runs High 14's to low 15's... I have said this before the problem with the jrsc is cost. If they cost say 1000 to 1200 I might consder getting one for the street but as much as they cost and the little power gain from it is not worth the cost. Hell even a Greddy Turbo cost less then a jrsc and a ton less than vortech and make more power.
