Basic SC setup - AcuraLegend.Org - The Acura Legend Forum for All Generations of the Honda / Acura Legend; 1986 to Present

Hi,

I'm very interested in the idea of a basic SC setup on my Legend that isn't hugely expensive or record breaking, i guess a lot of us would be interested in something like this.

(not that i'm going to do it any time soon but knowledge never hurts)

A relatively cheap setup that would allow you to run stock chipped ECU, and other features (AC & PS) with out need for a AEM or internal work (it's a C-Series so it won't need any it's strong as hell

)

Let's say for something like 300-350 hp at the wheels

What would be needed?
SC
Fuelpump
Injectors
Brackets
Custom pulley? (to allow PS and AC to work)

Why don't you just put the SC on the Legend, make it work and then share with us how you got it to work.

I agree. Plenty of documented information on this.

I don't remember seeing a successful install? I'm thinking of battery relocation and running off the alternator. Best spot I can think of for intercooling to run with the least amount of turns/pipe.

Thanks, thought I was following that one pretty close, but missed the last couple of pages. Still not a fan of Phys' setup really. I'm thinking....
SC that rotates counter clockwise... Bolted so the intake side is out toward the front, and blower is to the right. Route the intercooler through the right, down and back up through the factory intake hole in the fender well. Then pretty much a CAI lookin pipe the rest of the way. This means mounting the sc backwards so the pulley is right next to the alt pulley. One tensioner and bracket coming off the alt pulley bracket. Man I see it, but it's hard to describe.

Edit: directions of position as if I'm standing in front of the car looking into the bay.

Get the intercooler out of your head it adds unneeded complexity for a petty gain in power, power can be had in other areas

I still wanna see someone do this (I still may in the future...hmm one SC engine and one TT engine so I never feel too much loss when the TT is being worked on)
