hello from SoCal

Greetings Everyone!
My name is Paul and I'm glad to be part of this community. It seems (for the most part) that this site is a little less immature than the other "Honda" boards.

My current ride/money pit is a 2002 Honda S2000 with minor bolt ons and a turbo build in the process. So he's asked for my help on choosing a turbo/supercharger kit for his K20Z3. That is the initial reason why I joined, to help a friend get more info on his 06 Honda Si. He's actually thinking about force induction. But doesn't know anything about it yet.


Thanks to those who have contributed GREAT info on this board dedicated to the 8th gen civic! (Especially the one gentleman who put up all those compressor overlays with the K20Z3 charted points <-- kudos!)

right now, I'm still on page 5 of the AJP drama...

while I'm searching, please correct me if I'm wrong:
So far the available Force Induction kits available for the 06 Si are:
Comptech
Jackson/Mossman
AJP
Greddy
Redshift
??

Trying to do a thorough research before getting flamed for not searching before asking questions

Thanks in advance for any info!
Cheers and happy modding!

Paul

Here are some I just uploaded to photobucket right now. I have a gallery on s2ki.
There is one where my friend did a nice rendering of my S.
without powder coated wheels

after powder coated (although these are a photoshopped version to see how it would look like before I did it - it looks exactly the same... I'll upload that pic)



07mugencivic, I'm in Northridge, CA 818 area

I'll try to get some more pics if you guys like these.

Nope. I wish. I just know entirely too much of the little aftermarket tidbits since my friend is on S2ki, and I didn't have a little japanese import like my current Si for a long, long time. Basically, I lived my aftermarket dreams through HyperDimensions.

He went through Rick's clear diffusers, smoked diffusers, and finally settled in on some JDM headlights. I would also keep telling him to get the 2.3 stroke kit on his AP1....but.....

Chatsworth eh? I've probably seen him. The ones I see most in my area are red and black S2k's. I'd like to see his ride. Does he have a handle on s2ki also? Maybe I can PM him.

Is his a Vortech or Comptech SC? I have another friend who has a Comptech on his white AP1 at 8.5 psi, I think he's at 320rwhp.
