So.. I have a few questions about Supercharged S2000s.

This may sound like a stupid question but can you feel a different in power before vtec? How much of a different do you feel 1 - 10?

On a AP1 with Supercharger how much HP do you get at the wheels?

Cost for a supercharger?

 

1. Depends on if centrifugal or positive displacement SC, boost level, etc. You can also lower the VTEC crossover point depending on your engine management.

2. Depends on boost level and supporting mods. Stock Comptech ~270-300 whp. But still only ~80whp at 4000 rpms....

3. New, used, brand, supporting modifications? Stock used, low boost, retained injectors and ECU... $2500 + install. Full prep can run as much as $10k or more.

And BTW, this thread belongs in the FI forum and not UTH....

 

comptech (centrifugal) nothing until 6,000 rpm on the stock boost, need to add in gears to compensate.

 

With an AEM on it vtec is adjustable.
Mine drives like a std car reved out to 9k until I vtec it then it goes

 

you will feel improvement for sure but not much. Even at 2k RPM your still making A LITTLE boost. S/C is always making boost no matter what rpm. It just makes more the higher you go in the rpm band.

Vtec is when you Really feel it. When i was supercharged, the first day i got my car back and drove it i got whiplash because i wasn't expecting vtec to kick in so hard

 

for fryetech, get 4.77s for the low-end and a used comptech for the top-end. the cost for this would probably be 'round 3-4 grand, cheaper than any new supercharger route. or, do some more research on FI and just jump straight to a small quick spooling turbo...
