Death of a Supercharged Teg

[gsrev]

He will be dearly missed I took the blower off yesterday with my friend. Took about 5 hours to take off the blower and put the stock manifold back on. It was pretty much straight forward. Now I enjoy the long lost sound of the intake runners Okay sure I miss all the power and the whine my car used to make but soon, very soon... that power and much more will be reserected It was a whole lotta fun while it lasted though.

Umm, unless I'm misunderstanding something here the motor's not blown, the blower's just getting swapped into another car.

Ill dig that pulley up and send it out tomorrow!

hey gsrev, I was planning to meet up with you after my final wave of tests are over...I have TWO weeks left. I guess I won't be able to see your supercharged baby
What vehicle are you planning to implant that JRSC into?
BTW, are you planning to go to that Import Autoshow this Dec. 16th?

Hey Alex,

How about a rematch of our little race down the I-45 feeder a while back!!!

Hey Alex,

Glad to hear that you are not selling your ride. Although I never did get a chance to race you with my blower also since I never got around to Houston. Oh well!

Nevertheless, drop me a line when you get your new little toy!

Hehehe! I am getting my new b18c1 delivered the 2nd week of december. My s/c had to come off sometime so mine as well do it now while I had time. So now after 40K s/c'd miles my engine is stock again. Still runs like a charm. I still need to take off the suspension. I have the ground control and agx's that will also be going into my new toy. I am going to go all out on it. My new toy is a 92 civic cx that I purchased in august. My set up for now:

JE pistons 9.5:1
endyn eagle rods
total seal rings
jrsc with 8psi pulley
(contemplating a little NOS)

major weight reduction on the stock 2094lbs civic will include several things: no heater, a/c, total interior will be taken out including door panels, side pannels, seats, dash board, etc.. I will be using some very thin aluminum metal to dress things up a little and put my gauges in. My goal is to have the car weigh in at about 1700 lbs. My goal is to be hitting low 12's

Later on after I get out of the financial hole. I will be upgrading to larger injectors, engine management, and a stepper pulley from endyn.

Then sometime a bit later sell the s/c'r and go turbo. But for now I will work with what I have. I have been very fortunate that the guys at charlie thomas acura have been very supportive and very helpful in many ways, including my chic
