congrats!


justin: i've heard wrapping headers actually isn't the best thing for them...do aftermarket headers (like mugen) run that hot?

 

Anyone know the clearance with the weapon*r header? i am still deciding between that and the t1r.

I didn't order the injector upgrade with the a/t kit, hrm...

 

crap...talk about no space, thats tight as hell! i wonder if the jacksons took any other extra precautions, or if the hoses are a bit more heat resistant?

 

So after all that work have there been any issues with this kit so far? I know that oscar and kraftwerks have been on this project for a super long time, but you never know what can happen in the shipping and mass production.

Oh, does anyone have this thing on fully running good to go 100% done besides chris?

 

Hopefully I will. Got 4 other FF members helping me out tonight. Just got to install some gauges, plug in some wires, and thats it!

 

AT pre-order DONE! YAAA-HOOOOOO!

MT guys-- someone better get some frikkin' hi-quality video up SOON!

 

aaaaaahhhhhh man, i just closed a deal on a 2 bedroom condo so most of my money is going towards a down-payment on it and new furniture.....CRAP!!!.....and July is SO close......oh well, i could say the hell with the condo get the SC and just live in my car . priorities, priorities. Jackson Racing will have these kits available for while wont they???.....because of all these recent financial bindings i gotta hold off till probably.....christmas or next spring .

 

if i only had the money...


someday ill get me one!

 

just got an email that the a/t s/c's are up for preorder, anyone jump on it yet?

 

anyone testing the AT supercharger...i was wondering if i could keep up with a 94 accord manual tranny???..I preordered mine already

 

Illusive's Fit is now SC'd and running under it's own power.

Power delivery is very smooth and it now feels normal and gutsy not underpowered and gutless like mine

 

lol its definitely a lot more enjoyable! Couple things to note:

1: Air Filter and hose connector are rubbing against the fiber board underneath the hood. Will probably end up cutting away 1/3 of it for clearance.

2: Vibrating metal on metal sound, probably a brake line vibrating against the frame or against one another. Only happens when I'm under load and accelerating. More noticeable in 1st and 2nd gear, but can still hear it every so often in other gears usually at higher RPMs (>3k).

Anyways, just some minor details to sort out.

Big thanks to JDMish and Mr_ET for installing the SC for me! It was one helluva project, but it was definitely worth it! Left JDMish in my dust when we went for a first drive! Thanks to YeeFit for saving us a hell of a lot of time with wiring in those gauges.

 

now pics! lol

I'll snap some tonight when I make some adjustments. Too bad it's raining outside

Anyways, yeah what is the tech support e-mail?!?!?

 

Congrats Illusive!!

Please keep us posted on the rubbing and rattle issues. Anyone else have that problem?

 

If it wasn't raining today, I was going to take her out and make a vid. Too bad

The spooling of the SC under load sounds soooooo aweeesome!!! It's taking in so much air, I can hear the intake from inside the car hahaha!

 

So Anyone Know What Kinda Gauges I Should Get..i Need Something That I Can Hide..lol..i Don't Want Them To Be Seen By Anybody But Me...i Was Thinking About Putting It Inside My Glove Compartment....my Parents Can't Know I Got A Supercharger..lol..Also What Gauges Do I Really Need?

 

You don't need any actually. I just got them to look fly

 

You don't "need" gauges with the KW kit, just if you want them. You might be better off not getting them if your parents will get upset, and especially if you can't even see (and enjoy) them.

 

True True...okay Thanks Guys...i Was Just Wondering..because I Know With Certain Boost You Should Get Them But If Not Then I Wont Yay! Hmm I Wonder If I Can Run The Supercharger On Regular 89 Octane..lol..that Would Be Nice...but I Am Guessing Thats A No..lol
