If it's not worth it to drop your AC in exchange for the power, then you don't want it bad enough.

so i guess the s2k guess dont want the power or the honda fit since they get to keep there A/C and not us.

Maybe there's a way to relocate the a/c possibly? Or something along those lines... Can the A/C be relocated to where the idler pulley is? Or is it too big?

That will be way too much work. I mean you could do it but just thinking about the amount of work and custom fabrication necessary to do so is mind boggling. The Kraftwerks 06+ Civic Si kit is due late in the year and once that goes into production, and knowing how K engines are similar in configuration, we will see what parts can transfer over to other applications. The only real issue is engine compartment clearance and whether or not the plumbing, brackets, and what not will have enough clearance. All I know is that the RSX guys will have to cut a hole in their hood like we did on the Hondata RSX if they want to keep their A/C. Hopefully this will not be the case for the EP3 (fingers crossed).

There's always the TTS rotrex kit...

There's always the TTS rotrex kit...

whats the TTS rotex kit?

There's always the TTS rotrex kit...

The TTS Kit for the EP3 does make great power and does allow for the retention of the factory A/C but keep in mind two things:

1) That kit was specifically designed for the UKDM Civic Type R (K20A2), USDM K20A3 owners will NOT see the same numbers advertised.

2) You will pay a premium for it.

List price for the base Stage 1 is 2500 GB = $3625 US Dollars, Stage 2 + 3 Kits list for 3500 GB = $5,075 US Dollars

AND you still have to provide your own K-Pro (about $1000 US)

AND you still have to get it tuned ($300 +)

whats the TTS rotex kit?

Just like Kraftwerks is the official US Distributor for Rotrex in terms of Import Car Applications, TTS is the UK Distributor. Going further Power Enterprise is the JDM Distributor for Rotrex.

Thats still in the works? Sure been a long time comming.

2) You will pay a premium for it.

I mean, the basic K-series racekit is $2,700 and it doesn't come with any piping, intercooler, management, etc.

I am going to go with the Kraftwerks one myself, but your right, downside on the TTS is the cost, but the plus side is that you get everything you need in the TTS kit.. Besides kpro.

Here is an EG from K20a with the SC installed. The problem for us ep3's we don't get that much room!



What Do you guys think? Get an intercooler with left and right input/ output and Cut a hole next to the subframe into the radiator support? Or maybe remove the windsheild spray container and go around the corner? Hopefully the SC will actually fit behind the radiator
