Here's My Plan (feedback needed)

I'm going to be getting my JRSC in sometime this week as well as an AEM short ram. What do you guys think of this:

Get an AEM shortram (3in. diameter right?)
Then get a 70mm Throttle body
(one of these maybe http://www.ericksracing.com/throttlebody.htm)
Then take the S/C, before I even put it on, and have a machine shop port match the inlet on it to the 70mm throttle body.


What do you think? My lude is stock, do you think the money would be better spent elsewhere?

Why not an F-Max kit with Hondata stage 2b?

Supercharger may bring disappointing results. Turbo is the way to go. If you ask if putting money towards something else is better, a different setup would be it.

Hmmmm.... I think you guys misread the title or something. I am in no way asking for your opinions on the JRSC, nor will I get into why I made the decision I did. **newsflash** I ALREAD BOUGHT ONE!

The point of this post was to get feedback on the enlarged throttle body, short ram, and port matched JRSC.

that's in part why i was teasing inlinefour. i don't know if your plan will result in more power, but i would suspect that the fuel system/timing/engine management and exhaust are better places to look for gains right off the bat...

What kind of numbers would you be getting on the dyno with that?

i agree with schwett, but if you're planning on doing that, it's probabaly better your way cuz then you won't have to take it off and put it back on.

and for you people that keep talking about turbo, s/c's not worse, poeple get different things for different situations, maybe he's looking for the no-lag power of a s/c.
