Jackson Supercharger On My 96 Civic Ex(d16y8)

[rbarbera75]

Here is my current car setup:
96 civic EX coupe (D16Y8), its an automatic with 80,000 miles

current engine mods installed:
AEM-cold air intake
Greddy EVO II-cat back
DC Sports 4-2-1-Header

I just bought a Jackson racing supercahrger with the Stage 1 boost kit. I know that the Jackson supercharger is not the best but I bought the kit NEW from a friend for very very cheap and I was only looking to add a little more power to my daily driver. I have some questions.

1) I also bought an AEM fuel rail. Should I put it on or is there no need for it. Also if Ido put on the fuel rail should I put on some high flow fuel injectors? If so which ones would people recomend and what size?

2)Given the mileage on my car already should I upgrade any of the internals in my engine before I put on the Boost kit. I believe the boost kit allows it to run at 8psi or should I just leave it at the 6psi without the boost kit?

3)Last question, Is there anything else that I should upgrade once I install the supercharger?

Thanks for you help in advance.

6 psi is fine on stock internals, even 8 psi is fine. but to be safe do internals they will give u more power though in the long run. but my personal opinion man, sell everything u got and go with a swap. ull get less miles and about the same amount of power, but ull be getting a new engine and tranny.

Run the 8psi kit, but get it tuned on a dyno. I'd get some larger injectors and a hondata.

Definitely get some larger injectors and tune with Hondata. You'll get the most power, best reliability, and best fuel economy with proper tuning. I would recommend 310cc injectors for your setup. RC Engineering is good but expensive- Precision makes good injectors for about half the price. Sell your AEM fuel rail to get more cash.



You don't really need to upgrade the internals of your engine at all to run 8psi on a JRSC. They'll hold up just fine. Just make sure to get it all tuned properly on a dyno with a wideband.

i've got a set of RC310s i need to sell from my turbo setup (went 550 for the b20)

even with 310's, you might want to go with a 4:1 fmu and a vafc. That would be a decent way to go.

for a while i was thinking about gettin a jr supercharger for my si, before it got wrecked. this is what i got from the research i did. first off internals arent necessary but with ur mileage i would recommend it. second go with hondata for all ur ecu needs. they work perfect with jr stuff. third put in the fuel rail, larger injectors, and a better fuel pump. the boost kit is def the way to go. ull get a lil more power with the same amount of reliability. i say go with it man. car would be sweet. not the most powerful but sweet non the less.
