They are also an excellent match for old tech motors.

[B]My theory on why we keep getting centrifugal SC instead of something better: Centrifugal SC build boost in a highly nonlinear manner, yielding big boost near redline, but no boost at low rpms and very little boost at midrange.

As I said twice, I was attempting to refer to effect, not process.

The S2000 would be identical in this respect.

Can you honestly say that Jackson will not produce a kit in the future? You can predict the actions to a certain degree, but consider it is a corporation. Decisions are based on people, and different people make decisions in a corporation. Maybe if we show enough interest they'll produce one. Thats what its all about. And I can guarantee it won't be the same price as a prelude kit! Gotta love first year economics.

Actually, how about we STFU, stop arguing, and start a thread where we get everyones feedback and send it to Jackson Racing and other producers of FI systems? Wouldn't that be more successful then just bitching about whats better? Maybe we will see a supercharger that is $3500 for the S2000 if we get more companies producing it.

BTW, how does the JR supercharger compare to the Vortec supercharger for the Civic SI? After reading the other posts that mention the Vortech, it sounds like we might actually be in for a treat...

Ok, here, started a thread. I really need ya'll to help and post some recommendations. If enough interest is generated I can guarantee something will happen.
