So um...

Who's going to install it for you? When I had my SC, the install was easily the biggest nightmare I have ever gone through.

Would rather do 20 turbocharger installs consecutively than do another SC install. Here's why.



See the cluster**** of lines at the intake manifold? Those all took over 4 hours to route correctly. We had to make a dent in the shock tower in order for the nose pulley to fit, running the belt was a royal pain in the *** too. You need special brackets and shims for the alternator, and after all of that work, I seized an idler pulley and blew the belt off the next day causing the car to be down for a week while I had to wait for another set of pulleys to come from Jackson Racing. The problem is, recourses and information are scarce for the JRSC for the Dseries, not to mention the parts are even harder to come by. Jackson doesn't even carry the high boost pulleys, you would need to have ones custom made blah blah blah. Not worth it!



3 vacuum lines and 210whp is where it's at!

Nah I'm just saying don't waste your time with your sisters... apparantly now your, automatic Civic. If there's one thing you should know about forced induction.

It costs a lot of money, it breaks a lot of ****, and it's addicting as fuuuuuuuck.
