my guess is that they are trying to fix the problem of the JRSC rite now. thats why there isn't a price rite now.

Maybe JR is getting into a deal to supply Honda and Acura with factory backed superchargers (a la Toyota's TRD).

It won't take long till boosted engines quickly over run Honda. Saturn, Pontiac, and many others will have either factory options for, or dealer installed blowers in the next 1-2 years. Unless Honda responds, it will get sand kicked in it's face.

There has been a manufacturing error on some of the SI and RSX superchargers, which can cause the bearings on the charger to fail (it happened to my charger already). Until the problem gets solved Jackson isn't shipping any units out.

It looks like www.nopionline.com is still taking orders for the s/c. Current price is at 2525.64
