Well its been awhile since I have posted any Pics of my car. I have made a few changes as you well see. Bought new Rota Slips gunmetal w/polished lip with 205/50/15 Falken Azenis sport tires. But graded my suspension with Tokico illuminus w/tein stech springs, cusco 4point undercar chassi brace. Oh yeah almost forgot, a Vortech supercharger w/aftercooler @ 8psi. With the other mods i had already i went to the track last friday ran a best of 13.6 @101mph. Most of the time i was run 14s, but still over 100mph. Engine is still pretty much untuned, but hondata my next step.

nice..very nice..its nice to see someone choosing the supercharge route..there is a lot of people that under estimate the power of a supercharger..especially from a vortech.

Nice a Vortech. One of my buddies has a black Si with a Vortech SC. He is hitting the low 13's now.

Vortech is the ish.

very nice man. I got 3 ??s How much was the supercharger? How much hp does it give you? Did the azenis sport get good traction at the track of the launch?

how do you like the supercharger, is that overall better than a turbo set up?

Its a VIS CF hood, paid for by insurance, some guy pulled out infront of me head on, not that hard of a hit just messed up the original hood, so my body shop hooked me up with the CF hood, i had a idea to paint it like it is now, then saw what i wanted from a car that was import tuner and used that as a picture for the painter to go off of.

Well to answer a few questions, i bought the vortech w/aftercooler used with about 2000mile on it for 2800 shipped from a member on clubsi. Has far as hp, i havent dynod it yet but i estimate about 240-250 whp, hope to get more with tuning and hondata, and later build the motor. The vortech setup suppose to be the most reliable out there, you just have to keep up with your engine maintence, make sure you have coolant or water in the aftercooler pump, ofcourse your SC belt, it likes to slip or sqeak after a few hard runs at the track, I have 2 spare belts just incase. So far the azenis tires seem to be pretty good, as long as your suspension is in good working order, traction going to be better. Seems the only time i loose traction is in first, all other gears, they seem to stick pretty good for the amount of power i am making. My first runs at the track my front shocks were blown, but i just replaced them, I still have the upper engine mount to replace which i am ordering so i still getting a little wheel hop. The azenis also seem to be pretty good in the rain,i dont push the car when its wet anyway so.... Also as far as horsepower. I have a DC 4-1header, DC TCI twin chamber exhuast, GSR cams,ACT flywheel, stage 3 clutch,hondata intake gasket, NGK bcpr7es plugs, walboro 255 fuel pump, Precsion 440cc injectors, vafc(soon to be forsale once hondata install, i already have the ecu and adapter harness), skunk2 camgears, I like once the engine is build to be putting down about 300whp, I know alot of guys are making more turbo but this is my everyday driver, right now most mustangs and camaro cant hang, or i am on there ass telling them to get out the damn way.

Looks real good, I think I'll go bash my hood and get a VIS for free :D
