What JRSC setup are you running?

[Veris]

An ice box is fantasitc, but expensive. ~300

Weapon R sells boxes relatively cheaply. ~60-100

That would be great, but I don't suspect HT would setup a new forum.

I've tried to compile as much information as I could on my website. If I'm missing important information and you'd like to compile it, I'll host it. That goes for anyone.

can anybody point me to where i can get the jrsc crank puuleys looking for 10 or 11 psi whatever they make

[spets]

Pickleteg is selling his. PM him.

[redsidriver]

lol saw that i mean one actually made by jrsc not the crv crank

I would trust a oem honda one before a JRSC one. I think honda has some better quality control.

The only "crank" pulleys that I know of that were made by Jackson Racing are the ones for the EK (D16Y7 and D16Y8) kits because they needed to move the whole drive belt assembly away from the shock tower. They accomplished that by going to a 3 rib belt (EKs originally had 4 rib alternator belts). These also did not have any of the rubber crank vibration/harmonic damper stuff.

If you want a bigger crank pulley for a B series, you either have to get something custom made, or go with the CRV or LS (depending on what you're starting with). Otherwise, you're stuck with a smaller blower snout pulley or an overdrive stepper (alternator) pulley.

[redsidriver]

i do have an 8 psi crank pulley already on the car made by jackson

[rmcdaniels]

I had one of the JR B-series oversized crank pulleys, ran it for a while. Just call them and ask for the pulley from the "Boost Upgrade Kit": http://www.supercharger.com/Sh...33958 . As I recall, it wasn't cheap, but it was a nice pulley, made out of machined aluminum and hard anodized.

[PickleTeg]

Well guys...hate if you want but it looks like I will be trading my "Stock" JRSC kit and the CRV pulley to a local guy for some body work and a paint job. Here is what I have already bought..... http://www.synapseturbo.com/mm...tures

I am getting the 57 trim, so it is pretty small and should spool pretty fast. I am just too damn greedy. All the JR stuff is pulled off my car right now (except the JR battery tie down LOL) I also paid 200 bucks extra to get the A/C kit.

It has been fun sharing and gaining info from you guys, especially Roger and Veris. You guys go outta your way to help people out and for them to see just how nice these JRSC cars can be. If I had a VTEC engine I might have stuck with it but you can only get so much out of these M45 kits. After doing a cost comparison, the turbo kit comes out ahead of doing a VTEC swap and getting a new kit.

I need to stop typing now that the Percocet has kicked in from my surgery LOL

[R.A.T.]

I guess we're retiring our blowers together.
I ordered my turbo as well:

Stage 3 w/ GT35R
Everyone was great in this thread!!

[PickleTeg]

GT35?? Uh...I am guessing you are building your motor??

[spets]

The Syapse kit looks nice.. good luck! let us know how it goes... and if you miss your JRSC at all

After I get the LHT and MVM pulley on, I think that tops out my performance build. Afterwards, I'll probably go back to building up the suspension and brakes.. maybe a bigger rotor and/or PIC coilovers.

[PickleTeg]

I know that I am going to miss the instant boost and low end torque...plus the whine was a great conversation starter.

[JRSC01GS-R]

i find it very interesting that so many of us are switchin to turbos all around the same time. My motor is at the shop finally gettin cp 9.5:1 pistons and eagle rods as well as full rev valvetrain for the head. I have been eyeballin the synapse turbo kits for a while now, and I really like the topmount with the gt3076r. http://www.synapseturbo.com/mm...folds I havnt decited whether I am going to run the s/c on the new motor for a while or just wait til I have everything to go turbo, either way ill post up the results

[PickleTeg]

Yeah..wow...see I wonder if I had a VTEC engine and a LHT kit for that if I woulda switched...........

[R.A.T.]

Yup building an Ls/Vtec:
Darton sleeves 84mm
Cp pistons (compression will be figured out soon as we make the mold of the compression chamber but should be 9:1)
Eagle rods w/ arp rod bolts
acl bearings
resurfaced B18C5 head with 5 angle valve job
Ferrea valves and bronze valve guides
Supertech valve springs and retainers
gsr intake cam / itr exhaust cam
arp headstuds

should be nice!

[clemsonhatch]

I'm not getting rid of the supercharger...I'm just using it to spool a bigger turbo

[PickleTeg]

R.A.T. = Racers Around Track!! That thing is going to be crazy fast!

[R.A.T.]

Sure hope so! I guess we'll see each other in the turbo threads now

[2kjdmhatch]

What throttle cable would you guys reccommend for a JRSC ITR swapped ek? i hate the look of the stock cable its so long, i was thinking an itr cable?

[Veris]

SOHC vtec is shorter.

[spets]

PROBLEM!

I recently datalogged my car to see what it is doing.. and I lost 3PSI of boost into thin air.

Logging through the MAP sensor which is hooked up to the blower case.

I used to get around 5.5 psi. Now i am picking up 2.1 when I try. Vacumn still reads 21-22 inHG.

Where can the boost have gone? The only thing I can think of is something is keeping my bypass valve from closing all the way? Has anybody else experienced this or has any other ideas for what to check?

[JRSC01GS-R]

id say u have belt slip issues

[spets]

I forgot to mention, I just tightened up the SC belt, and I get the same numbers.
EDIT: Tightened up both SC and Alt belts, and I'm now getting 3psi. so part of it was probably due to belt slip....

any other options? I should be getting like 5.5!
