Possible Rotrex kit for d17 engine
i have been contacting a supplier of the rotrex superchargers and am at the point of sending in pics of the engine bay and the mounting points on the block where the A/C compressor bolts too trying to see if we can get a limited supplied kit for this engine. Hoping for the best. will post news as soon as i hear back from him.

Re: Possible Rotrex kit for d17 engine
actually, there has been a lot done for the D17... Since you've been around since 07, you've probably seen some of it, but seeing as how you only have 22 posts, then maybe not.
Paul from Dezod used to be a super active vendor here, and they developed a pretty nice turbo kit for the D17. They've since moved on to different platforms, but they still have a dedicated 7thgen civic section on their site.
I think the most power I've seen come out of a D17 was andyman's D17A1 with an -a2 head making 489whp and something like 390 torque. The D17 has potential, but usually involves a good amount of cash to make it powerful.
