"25 hp cannot be achieved with bolt-ons. Some will claim they did it, and yes, maybe on a cold day, on a dyno with an enormous fan blowing on an OPEN HOOD, they were able to pull it off when compared to a baseline on a hot day. But, real world, hood closed, on a hot track? No.
Let's face it, Honda built this engine about as well as it could be. To give you some idea, I run a Comptech SC/AC setup. After a while, I put a test pipe and Comptech exhaust on there and had no significant (1-2%)additional gain in whp. This means the stock exhaust is not limiting output, even with a SC (admittedly at a relatively conservative 5psi boost). Took that stuff off and went back to stock."
I think the Honda engine is so efficient and the power been put & designed by the engineers been utilized. There is nothing to extract unless you choose a forced induction route.
Well at the end of the day, are you happy with the Supercharged Comptech
setup? If you will do it over again, do you still think Supercharger is the answer over turbo? A kinda leaning toward turbo but without lowering the compression, there is a danger of blowing the engine.
This engine will go to my Seven (rear drive, very ideal setup).
