Yes that is correct. It's a 50whp gain over stock.

I am still learning about engine modifications and and adding HP to your car so try not to tear me a new one if I sound stupid here, but if your si comes stock with 197 hp and your supercharger adds a "50whp gain over stock" then at the very least you should be putting out 247 HP, right??? I'm confused, someone please help.

197 hp is crank hp or what the engine makes. when it gets to the wheels, what the dyno reads, its in the 170s. so plus 50 is 220 something

the car looks great. i actually dont care for the mods you have. i care more for the pics. they're absolutely stunning. you chose a great place to take the pics because of the lighting.

what camera and lense(s?) were used?

Thanks, glad you like the pics. I took these in kind of a hurry, so I'm not completely satisfied, but I needed to get some pics of the car with the time attacks that took their sweet time to get here. I used the same location as my previous shoot, the Colorado Convention Center tunnel. One of those also made it in the 8thcivic calendar, but with OEM wheels

Gear:
Canon 350D body (Rebel XT)
EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM
EF 50mm f/1.8 II - (used for most of these shots)

Processed RAW in Apple Aperture, and used Photoshop CS3 to add signature and resize for web.

I LOVE Aperture's RAW processing 10fold compared to photoshop's. Like night & day.

The 24-70 is one of those lenses you love to shoot with but hate to take out of the camera bag or even hate to take out of the house I should say lol.

Indubitably, we shall has a photoshoots!
