I took the plunge into the DarkSide.

[FoxRocket]

I made the plunge to the Dark Side and I'm still trying to wipe the stupid grin off my face. I purchased a JRSC from Modacar in Pleasenton and had them do the installation and tuning. My frist spin around the block after the blower installed was like falling in love with the Integra all over again. A meaner, more sinister Integra.

My GSR is stock with the exception of the SC running at 6psi and the JR fuel pump and I'm getting exactly what I thought I would get from the SC. I really like it.

I'm shopping around for an exhaust system for and exhaust system and intake for the thing now. Any suggestions on an exhaust that won't look like too much of a sewer pipe and won't sound like a V-1 flying bomb or advice on intakes?

Welcome aboard! It sure is fun when you first get one on. The part that sucks is when it seems slow after a month. As far as exhausts, supposedly the rs*r seems to be accepted fairly well, though you might wanna see what people say on how it sounds with the sc. I can't remember the comments exactly. Oh here I found Kevin's page on the exhaust. dunno how much longer it will be up since he's ditching his car I think. Hope he doesn't mind if I post, but its a good write-up:

That page is going to stay up for good. I want to make sure over people will benefit from my experiences.

The RS*R is a very good unit. Don't expect to see much power from it however. It does more for looks and sound than anything else. As far as intakes go, I recommend the AEM CAI. Personally at 6psi, i think the blower kit and intake are all you really need. Cam gears seem to have helped a couple of guys, you might want to try those when you get the chance. Also, I would look into some sort of detonation control in the form of an advanced knock sensor, BTM, or water injection. This will help prolong your engine life significantly.

A few people have tried the J&S knock sensor and have experienced good results with it. Personally, I would install one of these aforementioned safety devices before I would dump $500 into an exhaust. But that's just my opinion.

You'll want the exhaust and the intake as soon as you get it. I'd say intake first. AEM or Akimoto or DAC, your choice, but this is really needed.

After than exahust or J&S Safeguard.

Welcome!

y0ssa, that probably was my car you saw at the shop. They did a nice job too. I'm a computer programmer so I let more mechanically inclinded people do the install.

Blown 'teg good.

Isn't it fun?

You should show up for some of the bay area integra meets. There's lots of cool people that show, plus, you could join silvino and me to represent the darkside
