This could be confusing at times with all these questions and answers coming from various people and similar threads.

My current set up is vibrant RH, vibrant exhaust, aem cai, UR pulleys. I am undecided into which route i want to go: ALL MOTOR or CT S/C + FlashPro.

I know if i go AM i will finish up with TBS, cams, injectors, block(k24) etc etc and FlashPro

My question is, What would be route to take as far as the best bang of the buck, performance outbreak and most importantly reliablity since it is my DD for the next year and half.

your going to make more hp per dollar with FI then you will NA thats how its always been and always will be. FI is more efficient and cost effective then NA.
it would be even cheaper still to run the comptech sc stage 2 set up on the reflash. all of the parts you currently have will work with the sc except your pullies. those need to go back to stock.

ct stage 2 with your full bolt ons is gonna be 285-290whp on the reflash. probably 300whp on the flash pro but more costly. its really up to you.
flash pro offers more freedom though for future upgrades. cuz no matter what you do or route you go once you have the flashpro you need simply re tune and your good to go.

i'm going with the flash cuz i already paid for it and it will suite my goals.. however if i was to do it all over again from day 1 i would buy the stage 2 kit with the flash pro as a kit and have it tunned. more costly but worth it.

i however am gonna wait cuz stage 2 reflash vs stage 2 with flashpro is gonna be damn close. if and when i upgrade to flashpro im gonna drop the pulley even more and run meth so its really worth my while

ok. thanks bro!

Since i havent gone with a reflash yet, i think it would be more beneficial for me to do the stage II s/c with the FlashPro with the additional bolt-ons and tune. I wont be over paying like some of you will do if you already got the stage II reflash.

My goals are at least 300whp / 250-270tq, does that seem like an ideal goal to attain?

Well 300whp should now be attainable, but 250 tq i dont think we will ever see with a supercharger unless you are gonna spray on top of that, maybe 215-220 ish torque, and that might be the most. Typically its the turbo guys who get good torque numbers in the 250 range, but who knows we may have to see. but 300 hp now is more realistic.

if your goal is only 300whp.. get the stage 2 flash. your gonna be right there .. if you wanna push the envelope get a 3inch pulley and run the flash pro with some rc 650 injectors and methanol.

if and when i get the flashpro imma really make it worth my while so i can feel the difference.

3inch pulley. rc 650cc injectors methanol injection and steigemiester race port job for my blower. then have her all tunned up.

thats along ways away though.. thats gonna set me back quite the price tag.
would love to see someone else try it though.

Looking forward to all sorts of companies coming out of the woodwork to release F/I kits for us now... Plus people doing SICK custom builds!

I hope this just aids in Redshifts progress towards getting their S/C kit ready for the Si.

They already got it running on the RSX. Now all they have to do is fab up the intercooler piping on the Si and sell the damn kits.

I'm going to be selling my TSI kit when i get back from the desert and piece together a sweet custom build. Its about time we had something for our Si's.

i wonder how much that is gonna cost... i'd love to be intercooled.

might be cheaper to get meth.. a 3inch pulley and port the blower though

tune it all up after that. should be good for 330-350whp.
ported blowers FTW.

i wish i had like 2 grand right now. lol i've got all these ideas.. too bad the cash flow is weak right now

A while back the were saying the kit was going to be sold with the option of running the lysholm twin screw blower or the eaton m62 roots.

If thats still true it will just be a matter of the new adapter plate to mount our eaton blowers on their manifold.

If that ever occurrs you can bet your ass ill be getting their manifold and flashpro.

JR people can now get the true benefits of the aftercooler too.

Discussion Starter · #214 · May 10, 2009

hm... its probably gonna be around 3k dollars to get the flashpro, redshift manifold and intercooler,3inch pulley,650 injectors,have steigemeister port the blower, and tune for around 350whp...
ORRRRRRRRRRR.

i could keep my stage 2 the way it is for 2 years.. part out and sell my SI or sell it as is and then buy a gt500...
lol decisions decisions..

v8 + boost always = win though.

yea, 375 and you have piece of mind that your car will last(granted you have a good tuner)...... to me the piece of mind is worth even more than that!
