About KraftWerks:
KraftWerks was started to house all of our Rotrex-powered supercharger kits by Jackson Racing. We believe the Rotrex product will be able to grow with this brand into the future.
KraftWerks is made up of us at Jackson Racing, with Oscar Jackson Sr. at the helm and the rest of our Jackson Racing supercharger engineers. The same quality and technology that you have known of JR, will be with KraftWerks, and will be better than ever. We have improved our supercharger design techniques and have learned quite a bit on the Rotrex supercharger from recent testing.
KraftWerks will establish its own distribution by the time of the release of our new kits. No other companies will be responsible for the distribution of KraftWerks supercharger kits.
We appreciate the support of the Fit community very much! We are very excited about our new venture, and hope the Fit community is ready for some boost!!
The Fuel Electronics:
The new SuperCard utilizes newer software than our previous PowerCard. Also, the SuperCard is not a "basemap" to get you to a dyno or to "get you down the road." Also, the SuperCard really isn't a "piggyback" by traditional standards.
We spend a lot of time testing to get the electronics to work perfect across a whole range of situations; much like a typical OEM manufacturer tests their cars to work across a range of situations. We take pride in our SuperCard electronics and other electronics. We have revolutionized a new way of tuning vehicles.
The reason they are so small? That's because we use cell-phone technology, to make small chips and boards. This makes it simple for our customer to install, and it works seamlessly with the vehicle; at all throttle positions, all altitudes, all temperatures, all conditions.
To produce a CARB-legal product, it has to work. But we take it a step further and not just pass CARB regulations, we make it so it performs on the track, at full throttle, on the street, idling in traffic.
The SuperCard sees injector duty cycle output and manifold pressure. The SuperCard contains proprietary software that is able to determine proper management for all different types of conditions.
General KraftWerks Kit Information:
-The KraftWerks kits and Rotrex supercharger have a 2 year warranty.
-The Base and High-Boost kits are made to be used on completely stock engine components.
-There will be an upgrade path from Base kit to High-Boost kit.
-High-Boost kit information is not available currently.
-Any aftermarket cat-back exhaust can be used with the KraftWerks kits.
-Test pipes can be used, but in conjunction with our Injector Upgrade Pack.
-The stock MAP sensor is utilized in both the Base and High-Boost kits. No problems using the stock MAP sensor.
-The KraftWerks kits use a single belt in the system. We have had great belt life, and no issues with our belt drive. We recommend having an extra belt at home, or in the trunk on a long trip. Having a spare belt also makes it easier when you decide to change your belt. You can change it instantly, and then order another spare or two from us while you drive around on your fresh new belt.
-We include an automatic tensioner with our kit (stock car uses a manual tensioner) to help increase constant belt tension and reduce belt slipping. The automatic tensioner also increases belt life.
We have had excellent wear (meaning low wear), and have had no belt related issues. But I would expect to change the belt a little more often than stock, because the supercharged belt must work a bit harder.
-Fuel Electronics are always standard with our kits, and require no additional tuning.
-Automatic Fits will be able to get the Base kit.
-A/C is fully-retained
-Our kits have no check engine lights and are a full bolt-on system. Your factory OBDII system will work as normal with our kit.
-We will confirm international compatibility once our production pieces our available. We will be sending these pieces to Rotrex partners throughout the world to check Right Hand Drive Fit/Jazz. We believe that we should have no problems.Unfortunately, the kit will be available in North America only upon initial release. We will get out international testing complete, and then the kit will be available to all Fit/Jazz owners...
-In order to meet CARB specs, we have used the stock injectors with our SuperCard unit. And these stock injectors have been our big limitation, and we have reached the limit for the little Fit injectors at 121whp. Remember this is the Base CARB pending kit. This kit is to be used with a stock header and cat.
We will be offering an injector upgrade package for those that want to do a header and cat-delete, and it will work directly with the Base kit. The upgrade pack is plug and play, and is a low $399.99.
We will be releasing a Hondata Reflash package in June as another option for header/cat-delete Fits. This reflash will add many new features for the Fit, including raised rev limit, removed speed governor, adjusted VTEC, etc. This option will also be upgradeable to the High-Boost kit!
We have tested a few different cat-backs, and they all have shown minimal gain. On a S2000, for example, we found a cat-back system that lost over 50 WHP!!
The biggest performance gain you can do for your Base SC Fit is ultra-light wheels and high-performance tires.
The Rotrex Supercharger:
-The Rotrex is small; about the size of the turbo it competes against. It has a traction drive, but is sans the turbine of course.
-The Rotrex drive system is a planetary traction drive system. This patented drive allows the Rotrex to spin to extremely high RPMs. There is some calculated slip in the system, but it is very small. This drive has no cut gears, which allows the Rotrex to be ultra quiet.
-The traction drive system has been tested to over 500,000RPM! Compressors wheels will not live at that RPM though. The smallest Rotrex unit spins at 201,000 RPM all day long!
-It uses the same compressor wheels and housings as its turbo opponents, because the drive system can turn the proper RPMs.
-The Rotrex supercharger pumps its own Rotrex SX100 oil, so there is no need to tap the oil pan or add an oil pump. A small Rotrex reservoir is included, along with a small oil cooler for the Rotrex oil.
-The Rotrex SX100 traction oil should be replaced every 50,000 miles or 2 years. If you are doing some heavy track abuse, I recommend changing the oil more often. The bottle included with the kit will cover your first 50,000 miles or so under normal conditions.
-The ratio in the Rotrex supercharger never varies. The C15-60 supercharger used on the Fit kit has a 12.67:1 ratio.
-The supercharger pulley size changes the speed of the Rotrex, just like any other traditional supercharger.
The "Injector Package" runs used an aftermarket header, cat-delete, and full exhaust.

. oh well, just gonna have to create a seperate bank account for this one....and Kraftworks, please dont stop making these....i NEED FI on the FIT, id much rather do that than dump potentially $1000s into bolt-on upgrades that give moderate results.
