Arrow COMplex's Stage X Superchargery Thread

UPDATE! 4/21/2008

Thursday April 10, 2008 @ 11:10AM

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls... It has been done!

I recently decided to stop wasting time waiting for K-Pro, I-Pro, "Stage 2", etc. and went ahead and did my own thing and increased boost levels on my car.

Initial Mods -- CTSC Stage 1
Comptech Supercharger Kit
  • 3.6" pulley (4-5 psi peak)
  • Ghetto crushed FPR modification
  • Stock injectors
  • Comptech provided spark plugs
  • 82.5" 7rib Goodyear Gatorback Belt
Hondata/Comptech reflash
  • VTEC drops to 3000 rpm with a VTEC window to 5800 rpm
  • Ignition retarded
  • Cam angle advanced
  • Air fuel ratio richened
Hondata Intake Manifold Gasket
AEM Cold Air Intake
SSR 4-2-1 Race Header w/ Test Pipe
GReddy EVO2 Exhaust
Shell V-Power 91 Octane
Mobile 1 5w30

Resulting in 251.6hp/164.1tq to the WHEELS (corrected for altitude) @ 4psi

==================================================

Upgrade Mods -- COMplex Stage X
Swapped out the original 3.6" pulley for a 3.2" PulleyBoys pulley
Swapped out the original 82.5" belt for an 81" Goodyear Gatorback belt
Swapped out the original injectors for RC Engineering 650cc saturated injectors w/ clips
Installed the AEM F/IC (Fuel & Ignition controller) using the Boomslang harness

Resulting in 272hp/181.3tq to the WHEELS (corrected for altitude) @ 6psi

==================================================

I brought my car to Tobi @ TC Performance in Arvada CO since he is the ONLY local tuner that I trust to tune my car, and has experience tuning with the F/IC.

I just received a call from the shop, and was told that my car is 99% done being tuned, and is running great in its current form.

Tobi wants to perform some fine tuning on the street to get rid of a small hiccup at the VTEC changeover. The problem is we just had a nice winter storm (Colorado April FTL) so he won't be able to get it on the street until tomorrow or Monday.

Stay tuned for the final numbers and dyno sheets, and of course my experience and opinion from my butt dyno. I may even have to bust out my trusty video camera to update my age old YouTube videos.

I wanted to wait until I had all the numbers before starting the thread, but I know some of you are anxious to find out if it even worked or not.

Much love and thanks to Tai and Remy @ CorSport, Tobi @ TC Performance, and Greg @ Redshift for motivating me to even try all this.

hopefully your uncorrected numbers are good for the 3.2, it would suck to be pushing only a lil more than us stage 1 guys at low altitudes.

I doubt it will be that much. I'm hoping for 285ish. Depending on where it's at, I may jump down to the 3.0" pulley (smallest available) now that I know it can be tuned.

I'll discuss boosting more after speaking with Tobi. If for some crazy freak-of-nature reason I made 300+, well... I will be excite bike and might leave it alone!

I have a feeling that I will see the most gains in the midrange (where they belong) and I estimate 7-9psi. I'm waiting just like everyone else

I didn't want to call it stage 2 or 3 or anything because it's not. Stage X seemed like a good title
