I'm considering purchasing a supercharger but am curious as to what the reliability is like? Have there been serious problems from owners who've SC'd? How difficult is the install? (I've installed a greddy turbo kit on an '03 civic si) Thanks in advance.

 

Have you read some of the stickies at the top of this forum?

 

There are guys with almost 90k of S/C'ed driving.

 

Just sold my daily driver...SC'd and pullin' double duty (street/track) here without a problem of significance.

 

installing a s/c is not bad a full day is all you need and Reliability on a s/c is better and cheeper then a turbo kit

 

i was also curious about the diff... how does the OEM one hold up under boost? i don't plan on or want to launch it a lot to save it

 

Stock diff here, but with 4.44s. It's been just fine for many years with a Vortech. I launch from time to time and I take off fairly aggressively from time to time. Just remember the maintenance on it and learn to give it a rest between hard use by driving it normal for a few minutes to let the temps come down.

 

Dude.... don't get it your car is gonna blow up




Peace

 

You know I figured out how your diff has held together all this time.

It cost me money to get mine cryo'd. I live in Fl.

Where you live cryo thermal cycling is free. .

I suppose -38*C for 15 hours at a time might be fairly comparable.
