[integrity]

hey all ...
i own a 1989 to 1993 series integra ls ...
ive done the exhaust and the air filter and it gives me quite a bit of power ..
but what i was thinking is that .. would it be a good idea to supercharge my n/a b-18 engine ???...
if so would it make a big difference??

MY assumption is that you have the b18b engine - a torqey lil thing. 107kw stock i believe...

From what i have read i would not run a supercharger upon any small displacement engien ( sub 2.5l etc) as the supercharger is pulley run - upon a 1.8 it would waste too much HP to get up to speed.
Apart from this - supercharger kits arent cheap.
Research alittle more - go to google!*click here* (www.google.com) and look at "eaton" and "jackson racing" kits for HONDA.

Entry level - for basic kit + ecu + injectors blah blah is about $5000 +/- .....well , research first and tell us :)

Power wise , torque will be increased , as the supercharger produces boost from 0rpm basically - not so sure as to how much atw etc tho.

In my opinion dude , I would invest in first researching as i told previous - then consider other options - such as firstly a turbo kit or an engine conversion , or selling your car and buying somethign mroe powerful/newer as a better base.

Get researching and tell us back here what u find :)

umm cause i was thinking about getting the jackson racing kit ...
the avergae price i thought was around 3300 ...
do you know wat will give my car a better take off because other then that 0 to 50 is not so good (like a family car) but after that it goes
i was thinking cam shafts but im still not sure

crv-tec????

LS/VTEC - he already has the block - just basically needs a VTEC head and ECU...

yeah i was thinking about changing my cam shafts to a more v-tec feeling but not only at 5800 revs but from about 3000 but yeah i noe its expensive ..
for your opinion what would you suggest ...
bolt on turbo kit or just changing camshafts , cam gears and high compression pistons with a air/fuel regulator???
