Arent you supposed to have an intercooler when boosting that high on a SC? I'd hate to see that thing burn up.

To be clear, since it would be AEM FIC based there would be no tune included, it would require professional dyno and/or street tuning.

Not boosting that high. It peaks around 7psi from what I could tell on the drive home but it does boost a lot more a lot sooner. Instead of gradually creeping from 2psi to 4psi, it starts at 4psi and quickly works its way to 6-7.

Not needed, and not available. If/when one is released I'll have one.

I have to make an appointment to redyno the car originally to compare.

The graph I received from my tuner is from a Dynapack, has a 1.0 correction factor, and only goes to 7800rpm so I think it's uncorrected, and my car revs to 8200 so... we all have to wait

It idles a bit rougher than I'd prefer, but there's not much that can be done.

The butt dyno has shown significant improvements, but unfortunately I won't have any updated numbers until sometime next week. Besides, I want to compare numbers from the same dyno.

hey complex, do you think that if you haven't got your car reflashed with the supercharger, do you think it will eliminate the hiccups??

Potentially. Tobi feels that the FIC and reflash are fighting for superiority.

The problem without the reflash, is that there is no way to advance cam angle, retard the timing, or change VTEC engagement including adding a VTEC window.

If I had it my way (and a lot of money) I'd fly Doug from Hondata out here to make me a custom reflash.
