sorry if i missed this but if the stage 2 with krpo for my 06..will i be able 2 pass ny inspection?

 

kind of a dumb question, but is the heat exchanger the same as an intercooler? Or does it play the same rolw with just a different name?

 

Not too likely unless you go to a private guy who is "friendly" or "clueless".

 

yes

The K-Pro comes with base map. However, my recommendation is to install the system, then drive to the tuner with the stock ECU and stock injectors in place with the supercharger belt off. Then, install these parts at the tuner's shop.

You will need to raise the car slightly to drain the oil and change the fitting (engine oil fed system) or to install the drain line (self lubricating system).

You will need the factory crankshaft pulley removal tool, or the much less expensive aftermarket tool: Powerbuilt 648796 (search this on Amazon.com).

Please place the IAT sensor into the silicone elbow boot (this should be on pg 26 of your manual, if you don't have this in your manual (the current rev is 3/27/09), just let me know and I will e-mail you this page).

The SL compressor is delivered pre-filled. The level is checked with the dip stick when the compressor is installed. The kit includes 3 bottles of additional oil for future changes.

We've shown the best gains with 70mm exhausts. Our favorite is the T1-R because it does not have bad interior resonance like some of the others with this larger diameter. I use this on my daily driver:

As noted by CROD, the standard stage 1 06-08 get a reflashed ECU tuned specificly for the supercharger system. The Dual ECU K-Pro is only really needed if you are planning to exceed 10 PSI and want finer fuel, ignition, and VTEC control.

Please see installation guide page 9 section "Volute Clocking".

No, these are completely different parts.

There are two common types of ways to cool inlet charge temperature, air to air and air to liquid. In either case, a radiator core is placed between the compressor (turbocharger or supercharger) and engine. In an air to air system, ambient air flow passes across this core reducing the temperature of pressurized air passing through this exchanger. In a air to liquid system, liquid is passed across the core reducing temperature of this same pressurized air. Whether air or liquid cooled, this system is called an aftercooler system as the core is placed between the compressor and engine. The term "intercooler" is not applicable to 99% of automotive turbo/supercharger designs as this refers to a method of cooling between compressors. However, it's commonly misused as describing an air-air aftercooler system.

In our supercharger system, we use a liquid cooled aftercooler. The liquid passing across the core is circulated by a water pump that transfers it to a separate radiator mounted in front of the vehicle. This separate radiator is called a heat exchanger. This is best illustrated by this diagram:



There is lots of information on these different designs available online. If you have any questions about our specific design, feel free to post or drop us a line.
