Jackson Racing has no plans to offer a kit to support the 1.3L IDSI CVT.

awe man! why not?? sux 2 be me right now...

 

2Bad try another mod

 

Oscar,

How are the tech pubs coming along? Don't suppose you or someone could post the installation instructions when they're ready? I'd be very interested in reading through it.

Also, when do you anticipate support for the AT Fits?

 

I, among others, am still interested in seeing the dyno chart for the 5 lbs. kit as well as for the carb-leagal header whenever available. I was also hoping that someone could answer a question for me; I know that a "race only" header eliminates the cat. converter and therefore would make you fail emissions but CAN you just remove the cat. and install the "r.o." header WITHOUT ANY other modifications AT ALL and still have everything match-up and run correctly?, and also why are there no 4-2-1 carb-legal designs, everyone seems to be releasing shorty 4-1 designs but these do nothing for the mid-range where I am truly desiring the power increase?? Thank you for your time.

 

everyone is releasing shorty's cause it retains the cat, and with any race header install it will remove your cat.

 

Sorry about that, I just answered one of my questions, I didn't realize that the downpipe from the header is actually welded to the cat., therefore not allowing the utilization of that extra length to create a 4-2-1 design. There must be some way around this??? Could you cut the weld at the cat. converter, and cut a race header to match and then weld the two together???
(still looking for answers to previously stated questions as well), Thank you for your time.

 

any updates on the 10lbs kit?

 

i don't think there is enough space to do that, especailly with the stock cat. and what would be the point, if you want to retain a cat then just buy a shorty, it would be cheaper. im waiting for the DC.

 

The point would be... that by cutting out the useless downpipe and using that precious space to piece in a 4-2-1 design header that would add the horsepower and torque gains where they are more needed and desired, in the low-to-mid rpm range instead of in 5-6k range which is where the 4-1 designs add their real power. (and still be carb legal, if it would work??)

 

FitFreaks,

Sorry for the delay, I have been very busy!

Like I have said before, production is under way. Our production brackets are finished, and they are beautifully red anodized! We are so very close on production!

We have been delayed also by making sure fuel mapping was safe, and CARB Legal. The Fit has small injectors and a low horsepower fuel system, and a lot of testing has been done to understand the fuel system, and its limits.

We want to produce the best possible product, and we hope you understand this delay. Orders can be placed with Jackson Racing. USDM 1.5L Manuals Only.

The 10 PSI and AT 5 PSI kits have no release date, but will not be long after.

Thanks for your support!

Installation Instructions are complete, with final proofing done on a first install Fit.

A PDF of the instructions will be available closer to release.

Dear Oscar:

Is there any plan for the release of international FIT SC? If yes, when is the possible release date? Such another 3 months or something else?

I really looking for the S/C but if there is no plan for it or at least a possible date then I will go for Turbo rather then keep waiting! But it is sad, since all the people in China have a big wish that JR at least will have the 5 psi S/C which is universal version but now it turns up that it is equipped with a fuel injector which is only fit for USDM!

 

China FIT,

Something must be lost in translation, because there is a lot of confusion. I did not say that the 5 psi kit has different fuel injectors. I simply stated that we are testing the limits of the fuel system. That has nothing to do with international adaptability. In theory, Honda would carry the same fuel injector worldwide in its 1.5L VTEC Fit/Jazz. Of course that is theory. I never said that the USDM Fit had different injectors than any other Fit/Jazz. But like I have said before, there is much needed information about 1.5L VTEC Fits worldwide.

I have also said that there will be kits to fit international Fit/Jazz. There is no "for sure" release date, but I am sure it would be in the 1st Half of 2007. The reason a release date cannot be said, is because we do not have ANY information. It is technical information, mainly fuel related, not just horsepower and torque numbers. We also need to know if our current piping and mounting system will work.

So much is involved in making a supercharger kit that works and fits perfectly every time. And its even harder making it fit every international version, and keep it cost effective.

Along these lines, Automatic Fit will be released sometime during this first release. An absolute date is not feasible at this time.

Automatic and International Fit/Jazz will not be supported in this initial February release

I hope this clears up any misinformation.

I didn't want to be the one to say it, but China FIT needs to chill about getting the international version. lol I would advise you to just talk to him over PM about it. You is killing the thread!

I can't wait to see dyno's for the 5psi kit! ttt

 

He should know that the Rotrex s/c are obtainable from various distributors & sources, below is an example...he'd of course have to fab up the entire installation though...or wait for JR to do the engineering for him! Knowing how many folks have been bold enough to do their own turbo setups, it would certainly be possible to do it yourself...but forget about driving your Fit for a month!

Just a few quick n00bie question about this type of supercharger since I'm pretty new to this stuff.

Will there be any type of whining supercharger sound coming from the system itself? I love that sound! I'm sure there will be some sort of sound coming out of the engine when installed but is it noticeable?

Where does the belt connect to from the supercharger itself? a pulley extentsion?

AMEN! It had to be said.

 

Yeah, but it seems to me more like he is making a scene than anything else. He doesnt have to ask the same question over and over. I aint hating on the Asian Fit members, but there has to be a way for him to be more constructive with his posts. For example, make a seperate post that can be updated for the International JRSC SC kit. I can create it if need to be...weeeeeeeeeeee.

 

i was just wondering which size rotrex unit jackson racing was planning to use for these kits
