Roots and Centrifugal blowers both have their merits. I don't know that its necessary to go running out and buy a centrifugal blower the instant it hits the market.... centrifugal blowers are enough like turbos you may as well opt for the turbo.

if u lookin for a supercharger just go to procharger.com and check out the universal kit, it should give that k-series about 75% more power. down side- probably cost $3500 and up!!!

New Supercharger

Since its a new supercharger and not the roots charger it's smaller and can fit them in tigher places.

They are making a kit for the new Honda Fit. They might make a kit for the D17 since it will be an all new design. I belive they didn't make a kit before becasue of the size and demand. But now it's smaller it could fir eaiser and be easier to produce and I bet the D17 has more of a demand than the Fit.

Just an idea.....

they do not make a mount for the tsx manual tranny in a em2 hooked up to a k20/k24.

when i was going into 5th gear at the 1/4 mile in my rsx type S tranny really sucked because of my low rpms. that screwed up my times. i need to stay in gear alot long now because of boost

Either crack open the transmission and switch gears out or run taller drag slicks at the track. I'm sure you'll go with the latter haha.

Man i dunno, I think you should have gotten a type-s 6-speed or even an EP3 tranny because of the longer gears compared to the type-r.
