Today, Jackson Racing kits are based off of Rotrex traction-driven superchargers that, when compared to other types of superchargers, are more compact, have much higher adiabatic efficiencies, and yield far less noise. Inside they feature a traction-drive system that makes power through frictional forces developed through a series of rolling elements. In short, all of this means that torque's on tap all the time. |
Among the handful of kits that Jackson Racing currently offers is its Honda CR-Z system that fully integrates with the car's hybrid powertrain. Although Jackson Racing currently only offers kits for the CR-Z and 2006-2011 non-Si Civic, other systems are in development. Right about now you might be wondering about Jackson's older Civic, Integra, and Mazda Miata systems. Prior to re-founding Jackson Racing in 2012, Jackson licensed all of the company's older, Eaton-based kits to parts distributor Moss Motors. |
Engine wiring harness firm Rywire's own fully restored third-generation Civic complete with a B-series engine swap. |
Kinsler individual throttle bodies, a direct-fire ignition system that replaces the factory distributor, and a custom engine wiring harness are just a few of the customizations Rywire owner Ryan Basseri made. |
Rywire remains the undisputed leader when it comes to Honda and Acura engine wiring harnesses although the company works on and produces harnesses for a variety of makes. |
Standard-issue on what's considered to be a well-rounded Honda are quick-disconnect wiring harness adapters that eliminate what can be as many as eight factory connectors, depending on the car. |
For many, Honda-issued hardware is no longer good enough. Polished socket-head screws and anodized washers are customary. As a matter of fact, entire companies exist just to fulfill the needs of those seeking beautified hardware. |
Lisa and Gary Kubo helped shape the Honda drag racing scene during the mid-1990s with their fifth-generation Civic hatchback. Although the couple remains on a hiatus from racing their own car, according to the Kubos, the nine-second hatchback remains in a preserved state and may very well appear again one day. |
