Hmm - been looking at the Jackson Racing site for a long time :twisted: !!! Got some Honda tuning books that rate their supercharger very highly !
Someone told me it wouldn't fit in a mini - but the same was probably said of most 16v engines at some point !!!
That supercharger looks awfully big to fit on the back of the engine. I reckon you'd have to modify the bulkhead quite a bit to get that to fit. But i reckon its definitely possible.

It would be interesting to get some dimensions on that critter. Distance from head to rear of SC and the distance it hangs down from the lowest head mounting stud.
If it goes back the same distance as the standard IM then its bulkhead modification time. There could be one other solution if it works in a bit of a different orientation. Build an angled converter mount between head and SC. I suspect it would just have to be an aluminum plate with just enough of angle to raise the rear of the SC sufficiently to clear the bulkhead. JS

If you want a charger that will fit, look into Vortech chargers, on a recient visit to the states I picked up an import tuner mag, whith a how to install section, it gave step by step with over 150 photos. the JR one bolts up to the head, whereas the Vortech one actually sits to the nearside front of the block! it transmitts the power for the charger from the pully side, along the front of the block(With use of a driveshaft :idea: ) :!: and directs the air into the factory inlet plenm :shock: If you aint runnin a servo, then I'd say get saving :twisted:
