Jrsc questions...

[escape2me]

I have a couple questions regarding the JR because I am now about half the money saved for one.... 1.how much low end throttle response does it really add? 2.looking to buy used, what should I look for? 3.Will the warranty still be in effect if a new owner has the SC?

1. instant boost right when you mash the throttle. at 6psi you should be around 200-210 and about 140-150tq. good for high to low 13's.

2.make sure all the pulleys are in good shape and everything is accounted for. Make sure the blades still have the teflon coating on it and there is no shaft play (it spins easily) and also make sure there is no leaking around the nose of the charger.

3. I have no idea since the charger has been good to me for 30,000+ miles.

Ya like he said, its instant boost. Once you mash the gas pedal, you my friend, are gone

1) A lot...no more downshifting, just hit the gas and go. Instant boost is nice, but does make for interesting traction issues. Driveability is nice and smooth, very linear power, especially when you ditch the FMU and go Hondata/AEM etc.

2) Look for scratches on the rotors, chipped or peeling coating, chips on the ends of the rotors, smooth action when you turn the pulley by hand...shouldnt grind or knock or anything. Shouldnt freely spin like a turbo, but you should be able to smoothly turn the pulley. Make sure no oil is leaking from the nose, and the pulley isnt warped, bent or loose. Doublecheck with the parts list on Jacksons site...no used kit is 100% complete, so you may need a few extras. Make sure you have the support bracket with the manifold as well, and if you have the old aluminum idler pulleys, replace them with the newer plastic pulleys.

3) All depends on your dealer. They have to prove the JRSC caused the problem, so if you go in complaining of white smoke, no power and knocking, youre probably SOL. If you go in because your hatch is leaking or something, thats completely unrelated. If youre talking about the warranty on the charger, I do not think it transfers, but thats a question for JR.
