please show me a 1000 hp s/c honda? how many 9sec hondas u know are using s/c? a guy wrote an article on the increase of hp he gained after installing a jacksonracing s/c on his b16 si. it an was increase of 35-40 whp after parasitic loss,
vey dissopointing especially when he could spent the same amount on a t/c kit and gain double the power if not more than that amount. a rev hard t/c kit on a civic si jump to 252whp and 228 lbs of tq at 7 psi let me see a s/c do that. the main drawback with turbo is the lag. also turbines does not remove 80 hp, the only problem where the turbine becomes an issue is went it is bigger causing an increase in lag time, but this wii be able to create substantially higher hp gains due to it's increase in air compression.
i know u prefer s/c over t/c, but clearly for f/i applications on hondas,
turbocharging is clearly the best route if u want power. iv'e met people who installed s/c on thier vehicles and they were actually unsatisified if not dissopointed with thier results, some of them sold their s/c to get a t/c. of course some people elsewhere might be happy with the modest gains, i know i won't be.
10 hp please, show me your proof, sounds to me like it's your own theory.
