Dont think I'll need the AEM kit as the water to air intercooler should keep the temps down
its a Y4 block with a JDM D15B vtec head, pretty much a mini me. ARP head studs and a Y8 head gasket to pickup a bit more compression.

Haha the 'mericans have done a fair few mini me conversions but haven't seen many in Aus. Good stuff grofty! :)
You are supercharging but want a bit more compression? I would suggest staying with OEM as that block has good compression ratio for forced induction, thats why I first brought this thread to life. What made you go with that choice?
Yeah that is true, if you have water to air then you should be fine but could I ask you why you didn't go with air to air.. is this car a daily aswell? Sorry, not following many build threads.
Yeah its a OEM block, nothing aftermarket. I originally bought a JDM D15B but wanted abit more displacement for torque, so I got myself a D16Y4 block.
Superchargers love more compression, I would be loosing power by lowering compression.
Not sure if it will be a daily. The water to air setup is custom made, air to air is not possible as the supercharger mounts to the bottom of the intake manifold.
