Geeeze there's so many effing pages of stuff I dont want to read so sorry if i'm being repetative...

So can anyone that works for Honda tell me this (though I'm guessing the answer is yes)...

Will this SC void the warranty??? (crosses fingers)... cause I am so thinking about getting one.

It will void your engine internals warranty/wear warranty.

It will not void your cars electrical warranty, suspension warranty.

Depending on the dealer they would probably not want to cover drive shafts/CV Joints

sigh... If the supercharger itself is the cause of the part that failed it will not be covered. If it is not... then it is covered.

Sweeeet... I just have a few more questions then =]

1. The few posts I read, you said that the best tank of gas was 41mpg... so does this increase gas mileage.
2. This left your car at about 150hp to the wheels? (Dyno charts?)
3. What engine mods are recommended prior to buying this? (i.e. are headers necessary?)
4. If we have little knowledge of sc's and plan to have an outside party install it, should we start researching and learning more about them?
5. Does Jackson racing do installation?
6. How long will they be available? (cause I need to save!)

Sorry for the bombardment of questions, I'm just really excited and plan on buying one!

little knowledge on superchargers? search wikipedia, its a great site.


not to mention you have two huge threads that are huge BECAUSE they contain a PLETHORA of great info!

but at the same time, a lot of questions were repeated and answere over and over again, and that adds to how long the thread is too.

just go back and read it, you won't regret it. if you are that excited and plan on buying one, you wouldn't mind doing so, and should make the time to read it.

JDMChris -

Would you possible for you to give all the fans a video (with audio) of your supercharged Fit revving? I would love to hear what it sounds like.

The stock crank pulley MUST be used with our kit.

Most of the headers on the market should work fine with our kit.

10PSI by summer does not sound too far off!

There will be an upgrade path for 5PSI owners to 10PSI... So you can get boost in the mean time!

Saiko-
A lot of stuff you asked is available throughout this KraftWerks thread, and the "Jackson Racing" thread. It is worth it to look through, as there are in-depth discussions about the gas mileage, electronics, etc.

For information on how the Rotrex supercharger works... check out rotrex.com or supercharger-experience.com.

If you still search and don't find the answers you are looking for, don't be afraid to ask it right here. I will try to answer it to the best of my knowledge.

One question you asked, which I have never been asked...
How long will they be available?
That is unknown! But it is definitely NOT a limited time offer. We still have old supercharger kits that were originally released in the early 90's! So our kits should be around for a long time.

Well...uhh... the car would sound like it had just an intake! The supercharger makes no noise. The only noise you might hear if revved to high RPM is the bypass valve. The bypass makes a small pshh on high RPM shifts. But that's about it.

It is wonderful to have such a silent technology!

Whew... just got done reading everything in this thread... and I saw the dyno charts... and I am happy to say I am very impressed in what you fella's have accomplished... i am no doubt going to buy this sometime in the future!!! I'll be in contact with Kraftwerks soon, ready to purchase my SC... just one last question though...

who can I get to do the installation?

(I did read and it said that it would take an experience person 6hrs... the car shop that I go to often have never worked on a fit... as far as sc's go... they've been in business for 15 years... installing everything from turbos to exhausts, etc... would they be able to do that?)
