is an announcement saying that bomex has recently cut their prices,
although this links to the japanese site. the supplier featured is in
belgium and I dont know if they speak english but I would say they
probably would (75% sure). the styling products look good although the
photos on the site do not really do the kits justice, the suppliers site
could well have better quality photos.

themselves are distinctive although the cover of models appears to be

least one item available for any u.s. car you care to mention. when I
looked at the site the on line store was down so I imagine when it is
back up and running there should be on line prices. Their Ford Focus and
Saxo kits are well known.

Honda Civic Turbo Kits
and Supercharger Conversions
ProCharger
uk supplier -
autocraft salisbury
Manufacturer of
centrifugal supercharger kits based in the USA. Similar to Rotrex but
ProCharger have a much greater list of bolt on kits which can be seen on
their website, although these kits are focused towards American and
Japanese cars. Typical install time is listed as 8-10 hours, the same as
Rotrex kits. Procharger superchargers utilise their own oils supply so
there is no need to tap into a vehicles existing oil supply although the
supercharger oil requires changing every 8000 miles due to its
specialist construction. Procharger claim their kits can deliver, on
average a 50-85% gain ii horsepower and
torque, although this may well need to be backed up by a stronger
clutch and almost certainly bigger brakes! Application list includes
kits for the
Ford Focus and Ford
Mustang, Hummer, Pontiac,
Corvette
and sport compact cars
such as the
Honda Civic and Acura Integra.
A UK Japanese Car Magazine claimed that there is a
universal
kit available which can be adapted to fit most vehicles which I tend to
believe. The UK Importer dealer quoted a price in the region of 3500 to
4000 pounds for a complete kit including installation and rolling road
set up with a universal kit priced at approx 4000 pounds all in, in
essence drive in, drive out. SVEs demo car a
Honda Civic
produced approx 140hp before the conversion and 260 (if my memory serves
me correctly!) hp after, with the journalists saying that the power
delivery was completely linear. Kits are complete with all required
components for the
conversion. Site contains PDF of all kits and components.

also cheaper the

dynoed the turbo conversion (with G30R Garrett turbo) and it produced
over 350hp on an B Series engine at 12.4psi (Civic Si). Kits include

CRX-Honda-Perf
Focussing on swapping
to VTEC heads Honda SOHC engines, below is a snap shot of the
introduction.
I've seen a lot of questions recently regarding the conversion of a
D16a6 to become a sohc WITH vtec. This setups is commonly referred to as
a "Mini-me." So I'm going to try and cover all the various angles to
making one of these little D-series screamers right. NOTE: This isn't a
how-to article, it's more of a broad ideas type pointer...for the down
and dirty hands on, see Xtensive's earlier article.
In theory, it's very simple. Take a D16a6 bottom end and "just" bolt on
a D16z6 or D16y8 head. Okay, if you have no idea why somebody would
bother with this, raise your hand...For starters, more horsepower, more
torque and it's cheaper and easier than a complete engine swap.
Honda Hook Up
Honda Engine SWAP
information.
"D16Z6, D16Y8, D15B7: If you have one of the lower and cheaper civic
models, IE The Cx, Dx, Lx and If you're looking for a cheap power
increase while still maintaining stock gas mileage then the possibility
of swapping in one of the higher model civic engines is right up your
alley. The D16Z6 is the SOHC 5th Gen. Si and Ex engine pushing 125hp @
6600 rpm and 106 lb.-ft of torque @ 5200 rpm. The D16Y8 is the 6th gen.
SOHC Ex engine pushing 127hp @ 6600 rpm and 107 lb.-ft of torque @ 5500
rpm. These are extremely easy to find since allot ppl swap them out in
favor for more expensive engines. "
