    JRSC rsx supercharger on Ep3

    ****PAGE 2 for install PICS ************


    hello guys i did my research but didn't come up with the info i'm looking for

    I know rsx s/c is bolting on good only need cutting on the rad support but that dosen't matter's.
    But i don't know anything about belt lenght and for the autotentioner if its fitting or not what is require to make it fit ?


    The reason why i don't want to use ep3 specific blower is that i cannot aftercool it...

    I have a 62.2" Napa belt on my 3.4" DC5 JRSC at the moment with a Joe McCarthy IPS auto tensioner and a2 crank pulley. Fits perfect!

    *Oh, and if you go with a 3.2"or 3.0" blower pulley, you won't even need to notch your radiator support.

    So can you do this in reverse? An ep3 blower on a dc5 engine?

    is a used race supercharger kit usable with stock header and exhaust? Want to pack some punch and keep quiet. Might be thinking about on a k24a1 or 06+tsx a2

    With the stock exhaust manifold i don't think it would be a good idea, your going to get poor number...
    if you want to stay quiet, maybee you should get a custom exhaust with a good resonator and a good muffler

    So I also have a K20a Type R but its from the Ep3* Would I have to run an Ep3 JRSC Blower on it or can the Dc5 Blower be used instead?

    My DC5 manifold is still running strong even 5 years later. My only gripe is I didn't go with a 3.2" or smaller pulley from the get go for clearance and power. Just make sure you take your time with the swap and put it together slowly. I helped 2004EP3HATCH and IllDiesel install one into their Ep3s as well. It's a simple swap once you start taking things apart.


    You can use the DC5 JRSC manifold on ANY Ep3. You just have to do with a little AC maneuvering and a little clearance issue on any 3.4" or larger pulley. A 62.2" belt will work with a K20a2 crank and 3.4" pulley and a 62" works with the 3.2".

    Make sure you replace your crank pulley for a larger one like the k24a4 accord crank pulley, otherwise you'll be boosting 3-4psi

    But yeah you can put the dc5 supercharger in the ep3

    have you calculated what your blower speeds are? how much boost do you want to run? the JRSC wants a super tight belt- did you experience any belt slip? i snapped/ over stretched 3 belts on the dyno before it held boost properly.

    I guess, but why? The dc5 manifold is more efficient than the ep3 and with the dc5 manifold you can run an after cooler with. And if you haven't been following along on clubrsx or k20a, there are kits popping up to replace the m62 with either a twins screw or a m90x.
