Read that too...Common threads between people being pissed with their superchargers = installed themselves, shitty ignition systems, high milage piece of shit cars...and not knowing how to handle a manual transmission with that sort of boost.

Yeah i am considering getting the JRSC, but I'm not sure if putting in on a 93,000 mile civic is a great idea. but i heard if you do a compression check and the engine is sound , i should be ok
