    Hey whats up?

    Hey everybody whats up? Looks like the Sportcompact guys are far and few between. Just Thought i would register because i just purchased a Vortech Supercharger for my 2000 honda civic si and we are installing it this weekend. Thought I might need some help installing. Thanks, hope to get to know some of you all.

    ttt are you going to dyno it when you're finished? I'd like to see how that runs.
    89 Coupe with parts stacked inside of it and about 30#'s of dust on it with no end in sight. :weird:





    Although I am collecting parts for a 12.5:1 393 :D

    Well got little more then half way done. We got the S/C on and the shaft and the pullies, the oil lines ran the water box on, water cooler on, and coolant resevior (sp?) relocated. I believe thats about it. But everything is starting to come together.

    Well got it all together and running!!! I got it tuned this weekend, so everything seems to be lined out. I love the kit. Its amazing on up in the rpms. I am glad that i picked Vortech!!! The BOV just sits everything off man it sounds awesome. Its a very smooth transtion when the charger builds its boost. I hope to go to the track or maybe the dyno this weekend, i guess will see, money is a little tight so i dont know what i will do.

    I have a 2000 Si with a Vortech Aftercooled system, and as far as horsepower numbers it all depends on the brand and model of dyno. I dyno'd mine on a Mustang Dyno and came up with 260 hp at the wheels. A Dynojet gives fictitious amounts. Good luck with your numbers!

    Don't be inhibited from posting just because there are a lot of mustang guys on here, there are those of us interested in all kinds of cars. Mustangs are just popular to put superchargers on just because there are so many kits on the market for them. But its good to see a change and a more diverse group on here.
