Everything You Need To Know Before Supercharging Your Civic Si 😳 

your saying only as if that’s not a lot of horsepower

@@vlecronLiterally you would have a greater power to weight that challenges Porsches with that.

Yeah e85 if you want it to be reliable. Upgrade your clutch, if your synchros are worn man up and rebuild your trans. Just because one person car hasn’t had issues doesn’t mean others won’t. Don’t cheap out and you’ll be fine. Don’t buy used injectors without getting the seller to flow test them or have a video of a flow test. It’s a high compression motor idc what people say anyone with a basic mechanical knowledge knows that it’s higher risk with boost on pump gas. It’s very hard to detonate on e85 so if you want to boost your si run e85, be aware that your fuel lines and tank can corrode over time or from sitting because they weren’t meant to have ethanol running through them. Same with your injectors make sure they’re e85 safe. If you want more in depth answers find a reputable Honda tuner or engine shop and they’ll tell you everything they need to know to have a reliable build. Power isn’t cheap, cheap power isn’t reliable and rarely is long lasting.

The kit comes with 1000cc injectors

You dont need e85 if your timing isnt too aggressive

@@SaabStory636 What would you say the budget would be for a reliable setup for a 9th gen Si with a supercharger kit with a goal of 300whp? I know the supercharger kit cost, but I'm not familiar with what supporting mods are needed and their respective costs.

@@almeida8x definitely a E85 compatible fuel system. Idk too much about the 9th gens but I wouldn’t imagine it’s too different from 8th si’s. I know a lot of people who with just basic bolt ons, e85 compatible fuel system and the supercharger kit have gotten into the 300’s or more. If you want more detailed answers I’d reach out to a tuner who sees what is required to reach that goal every day.

same

About how much for that build?

@@Staarlifejaay like 10-15k

U should bro

@@GerberFlerber ima have to save up and graduate high school

V6, what a joke.

It was very recently built. There's a previous video where it 'died'

Same hahah east bay boyz

Whole kit not cheap… I’m on the hunt for a used one for that reason

Do you live in California? Does it require a tune?

I can drive the car in the rain. I will need to put the hood vent cover back on and the windshield cowl.

@@TheBoyWithTheHonda cool, love your car bro, I’ve been thinking about getting a new car recently and I’ve looked at muscle cars and stuff but these gas prices are crazy, but after seeing your car hold up with some other fast cars ive been looking a lot into getting an si myself

@@TheBoyWithTheHonda long road trips any good for it ?

I am running OEM shifter cables

I run a competition stage 4 clutch so that is what I’d recommend. It’s an aggressive clutch so you may not like it if you daily drive the car in stop and go traffic.

@@TheBoyWithTheHonda do you need to tune it after installation of the clutch??

I have a 2008. The 06-11 could last a very long time if you take care of it. I genuinely believe it can pass the 500k mile mark with proper maintenance.

Yes, you will be fine if your engine is healthy. I personally wouldn’t upgrade any pulley’s.

I currently have a dw300 fuel pump.

Not anymore discontinued in 2019

No gear grinds. Sometimes 2nd gear would be a little hard going into at high rpms. But that happens once in a blue moon. Typical 8th Gen Si trans. That’s why I never race in 1st gear.

A 2018?
