And with those, you still deal with some bit of lag. Not my cup of tea. I think I will stick with my JRSC, as I get more then enough power out of it.

The supercharger works great at autocross. TONS of low end power, and alot of times you need it when one of the CRX guys designs the course. They LOVE to put in way crazy turns that forces you into first at 5 mph. (I think they just like making the corvettes mad)

You'd have to make sure the internal gear drive/belt drive system is geared good. I've heard stories about putting V8 centrifugals on smaller engines and they end up not working out well...i'm not sure if Vortech changes their gearing for the HOnda setups.

Haha, you must AUtoX on a smaller course...gotta love one tire fires on those low speed turns. Saw some GTPs the last time out and they were just smoking that inside tire.

As for centriguals, they don't really have "lag" because they end up being geared to give the power at a certain point, but still not at the same point as a roots...which is why I don't like them.


Since we are now on forced induction...someone seriously needs to come out with a screwcharger(Whipple/Autorotor) kit for the Honda engines. They have a kit for Miatas...they design makes them more efficient.

Hey what would you think of using Hydrogen peroxide instead of water? Seems like the extra Oxygen might be a good thing

Same reason we dont' use it in computers

Breaks down way quickly in comparison.

Also, H2O2 when applied to your skin doesn't cool like alky...but it might do something...you could always try it...in the end it might just be like spraying water anyways.
