Question forced induction on an 02 LX

Do they make a kit that bolts up to the "POS" 1.7L LX motor? If so, has anyone done it... and are you happy with the results?

thanks for your responses
Jeremy, LasVegas

i pieced mine together for a lx and then got a ex motor, for the vtec turbo performance says they have a kit for us but their stuff is JUNKKKKKKK. i have a exhaust manifold and downpipe and intercooler piping and it looks like crap and the welds on the manifold are going to BLOW on the way home from the shop most likely, so if ne one has a good place to get a manifold let me know id prefer it to be drag

dude seriously unless you want to get flamed you need to search about your topic before you post. most of the time you can answer your own question.

From an exhaust and plugs, i gained .4 seconds on the 1/4 mile. The other night we went out to test out how fast the car will be on 5 1/2 - 6 psi and it ran a 15.018 @ 95.124 mph 1/4 mile.

Just so you know, there was a 15 mph crosswind and i was racing at 2,710 ft. With the correction factors that LACR has provided us with, i would have ran a 14.567 @ 97.977 mph.

these correction factors were acquired from http://www.lacr.net/indexmain.htm
and my timeslip is posted below.

I ran this on stock tires, hence the bad 60 ft. time.
