Alright fellas..I need the info. Ever heard of the Endyn kit? If you..whats your opinion of it? I need answers from installers and gurus. And for those who install and have had turbos..such as John from Spec-R and RiceRocket..if I wanted to run forced induction on a 00 Base Model Prelude (5 speed of course) and only for street use not dragging..which would be the way to go..Turbo or SC? I hear (and we all know how this goes) that the Drag kit is not good for that particular car and that the F-Max kit is the way to go. Opinions? And with that kit what is the max PSI you can run before going into heavy engine work? And if you know..what kind of gains am I looking at with that kit (and of course with the usual Stage 2 or 3 clutch igniton exhaust)? Or is it better to just slap on the JRSC when it does become available and run the 8 or 9 psi and hope that what Jackson claims (243 hp to the wheels 285 at the crank?) Or is that backwards?

First off if you wait for larry to release his SC kit...You will be waiting a long time. He has been devoloping it for years. His site is www.theoldone.com .

If it were me I would get the JRSC. Ive seen the numbers and they do impress me (on the prelude only). This would make a very nice clean daily driver...with a few other mods like I/H/E Cam gears Ign and maybe water injection.

If I had a Prelude...JRSC is where Id be. Civic? DRAG GEN III...Nuff said.

Hey RR...thats the way I was planning to go but what do you think about the FMAX kit thats made for this car. The numbers are almost identical. I was told the FMAX kit made 245hp to the wheels with 8 to 9 psi. And thats with just the bolt on kit with stock internals. And if you wanted to add some reinforced pistons and a few other things you could easily raise the boost with out blowing the engine. Is this true? Ive never owned a turbo so I dont know the Joys and Sorrows. But I have owned a SC though it was on a civic I liked it. Any comments?
