I know that the JRSC kit runs at like 8psi of boost. I was wondering, would there be any other way for me to up that boost so i could make like 90-100hp? Sport Compact Car did it with the Miata, they put a model 62 sc in place of the model 45 and it worked great. Could i not do the same with any other honda/acura motor that has a JRSC kit? Oh and by the way how much HP do you get for every PSI of boost on a supercharger?

there is a lot easier of a way to up the boost, change the pulley on the charger. only problem is the heat. so yeah maybe a bigger blower would be called for although i couldnt say for sure where to draw the line in determining it.
the only problem i could forsee is overall blower size and space available. i know the m62 barely fits on the prelude, anything bigger and it wouldnt. i cant say much for the civic as i have only seen a few but since the blower mounts underneath the manifold you have more space to work with. as for actual blower fitament i dont know if the 45 has a smaller flange the the 62, thats something eaton would have to answer for you. if it did then you would need to have an adapter plate cnc'd to mate the bigger blower to the smaller blowers intake manifold.
as for how much hp per pound of boost. if anyone answers that for you they dont know what they are talking about. its not like a universal law when figuring it out. efficiency, tuning, displacement, compression and many many more things play an overall part in how much power 1psi will make on any given motor.
