To answer a few questions from earlier posts:

I talked with Vortech this morning and they told me that the bypass valve does make noise on deceleration.

Vortech Supercharger Kit Installation Instructions

Dont forget that it includes 500 bux worth of electonics as well. Not really a comparison if you ask me.


Jeff, are you going to be using any other type of piggy back in conjunction with the Vortech such as a VAFC? I asked Trevor if they would work together and he wasnt sure.

How difficult would it be to polish the Satin finish Vortech kit? Would there be any damaging side effects to doing this? It's all metal anyway...void the warranty maybe? This could be one way to save some money.

A friend of mine who works in the Acura Service department(NSX Tech) installed my Hondata gasket along with Mugen fan, thermostat and temp sensor and drained and refilled the coolant system in 4 hours. He did this at his house in his garage on jack stands. Not at the dealership on a lift.

How did it take a whole day???
