Holding off on my NX Kit, just too much at once I think...I know someone will read it and say, never enough...LoL
I think everyone hates Jeff @ STILLEN.

I have a feeling I'll be looking for a new tranny once this gets put on. The car should be running around 11 psi or so. Wwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!
Yes..... I'm nuts.

My stock 3.6" pulley is making 6-7 lbs of boost (just above 0.4 kg/cm2 to 0.5 kg/cm2) on my Greddy boost gauge. With all my tranny mods how do you think the 3.25" pulley would do on my car?

Yup, the 3.25" is suppose to give about 10 PSI. I used to get 6, but since the boost gauge is using another vacuum line I'm getting much higher readings.
With all the mods, I still don't think it's safe for our trannys. I wouldn't recommend it if you worry about blowing stuff up.

Two questions. How much boost can we run on a 5-spd before clutch replacement is mandatory? You guys have me drooling over the idea of 350hp but this is going to turn into a $5000 deal or more if I need to replace the clutch. (I know 11psi will liquidate a stock cluth but what about 7-8psi?) Also, I was going to sell my car because I was ****ed-off about not having an lsd until I laid down TWIN 90 foot patches. How can that be if I don't have a limited slip?

As for LSD Q....sometimes you break both tires loose, but majority of the time its one. I've one a burnout with both tires peeling, then it stopped, and I put on a smoke show for all the civics in the lot on DPA. Best one was breaking the tires loose, and having smoke come in and i'm swatting the smoke, and turning the wheel, so it looked like a restrained pit bull swerving trying to break his chain loose, and with the HIDs piercing through the smoke, it was a picture perfect opp, but no camera

Maxima97GLE put on a show of reverse donuts, and a burnout as he swung out of it.

You have the SC on the car already? Did you put the MAF before or after the BOV? Taken itout for a drive yet? I get hesitation at about 3K or 90 mph (won't happen if I give it more gas).
We both have broken ka's...

One of the error codes might be MAP sensor related. Adam (The New CLIMAX) and I have had this code come up.
My hesitation gives a camshaft position sensor code. The sensor was replaced with a new one, but the code still comes up.
It's fun driving like a mad man.

I have to agree with you that it's deceivingly fast. On the freeway, I can hit 3 psi with a light tap on the accelerator. I can't imagine how driving's going to be in wet weather.
The metal covers are fun to play on. Hehehehe

Re: 3.125
Holy crap!! 3.125" pulley??? 3" pulley? Exactly how much torture can these vortechs take? I'd imagine you're pulling about 15-16000rpm out of the thing with a 3.125" pulley.. what are these superchargers rated for?
I'd imagine you'd be spitting supercharger oil in a few thousand K....

Hey Steve...I have a ? for you. Since the AFC has been proven not to work with our cars long term what do you have to say about your Fields Fuel Controller? Do you have to keep re-programing it ir does it work pretty well? It is either that or the PROgram for me. I know you are not a big endorser of that route. Let me know dude. If you want you can take it to e-mail.
