the guy's running a smaller battery an odyssey but oscar jr said you dont need a smaller battery

 

That's good to know, from the pic I couldn't tell if the battery had to be mover or a smaller battery was needed.

A guy on my local car forum just moved up here form Cali, im realy interested to see how hes going to like MN winters...lol

 

so i know it was turbo vs. supercharger at the dyno day. does anybody know how much the turbo made at the meet? just wondering

 

no turbos were dyno'd kelso's clutch was slipping, so he didnt dyno it

 

i would guess a little more than the highboost was making?

 

I wouldn't guess that...

This is exactly why we wanted a turbo car at our facility to dyno at that meet. We wanted to show the High-Boost kit's capabilities head to head on the same dyno same day. But unfortunately, only kelso came and he didn't dyno.

With what I know I say... Well, I will keep that one to myself. Customers will soon see.

i know you guys got 174hp but the car you guys dyno had the weapon r race header (that header leaks). i'm pretty sure you guys can squeeze out a few more hp

 

The turbo cars that I have driven seem to have a power band like a 2 stroke motorcycle.....It is either climbing on a dyno chart to the top or or vertically descending from the top..... Th KWSC is still making power that very gradually declines after peaking and allows you to be at a higher horsepower position on the chart for better accelleration in 4th and 5th gears.

 

ooo me likey! i think the ability to have so much torque in virtually any gear and the lack of on/off power delivery is one of the several things that make this kit so awesome.

so ojr, any plans for the ge?

 

hey SIR

when is the ETA for the high boost kit

 

why is it that so many people think turbo is far superior to s/c.. KW kits are so nice IMO (besides the wait time for upgrades lol).

 

The Rotrex is the best thing going for boost with a driver friendly power band and lower intake temperatures.

 

okay I'll wait...but I just would like the BOV pshhh sound and a FMIC ;/

 

Check out Leonine, he's running a BOV and AEM FMIC with his KWSC kit.

PSHH PSHH WHIRR WHIRR

 

sounds like a turbo just add whatever BOV you want.. FMIC is all show.. temps are low enough as is no need for that.

 

you do get the BOV sound even with the base kit. there is a blow off valve already with the kit just not as cool looking as the aftermarket BOV

 

it's a bypass valve, your supercharger recirculates the boost until you step on the throttle. it does give a little bit of a blow off sound when it opens.

it's kind of cool, when you've got the cruise control on and you go up a hill the boost will rise and the rpm will stay the same...

 

it comes witha bypass valve, and it sounds much the same.

have you seen the top mount intercooler the jacksons made for the fit? its fantastic and super clean, much better looking than a front mount intercooler and you get to keep your foglights.

 

Can't come out soon enough.

 

If the Hondata reflash and intercooler result in leaner A/F ratios, I am going to want to do the upgrade also..... I am very pleased with my fuel mileage on the highway but city driving is dissapointing in comparison and much worse than it was stock..... My car runs much cooler than it did in stock form in traffic, I think due to the richness of the fuel mixture.
