First question: If you're referring to a supercharger, several members do have one made by Comptech and are very happy.

Second Question: Keeping the redline under 6K is recommended by Honda in order to break-in all the mehanicals properly; however, many have not adhered strictly to this, and as far as I know there have been no ill effects. I think it's better to be safe than sorry, though; you'll have plenty of time to enjoy VTEC.
