Default Sound with supercharger....?

So without the supercharger.... An s2000 with intake makes a very loud tone change when vtec is engaged.

Does this still happen with the supercharger?

if you have the stock ckutch, you won't get any sound other than the stock engine sound. if you have an exhaust though, it will make the exhaust sound 10x better.

here is a video clip of my car. it was recorded with a cell phone so the quality of the sound is not the best.

We tune the kick out to make the power smother and starting at much lower rpms.

It's like having the V-tec kick in all the time.

Check out the sound here: http://videos.streetfire.net/video/b847ea1...de320d710dc.htm

During my dyno, you could definitely hear the VTEC kick in and the HPs go up!

Yea I don't plan on doing any tuning. Just running stock boost and that's it.

I think you'd still need to get tuning done. Or it would be ideal. Few cars can go from NA to FI without needing A/F tuning. I could be wrong as I am new to the S2000, but that has been my experience in the past.

if you don't get an engine management, you just need to adjust the Vortech FMU

when you have AEM EMS, the check engine light does not work so we made the check engine light appear as a shift light. Everytime I hit redline, it comes on telling me to shift
