Car was mapped in September 2011 at HHH Tuning in Dreghorn, who is a well respected tuner in the Honda scene.

It made 291bhp and 189lbft of torque at 7psi - a smaller pulley and a remap would see over 300bhp, but the JRSC doesn't have cooling capacity so problems with intake temps start to occur - 7psi is more than enough for a daily driver/fun road car

All the modifications fitted to this car are of the highest quality (except maybe the Tegiwa induction kit, but it was one of the first off the line and someone had to try it out lol) but i'm sure if you're looking at this advert, you'll have half a clue that this is not your usual EP3 with a cheapo loud exhaust and ebay suspension (the exhaust alone costs nearly £2000 to buy, if you can get someone to ship it from Japan!)

I consider myself a Honda enthusiast and take a lot of pride in my car, it gets an oil change every 6 months inbetween dealer services (fully stamped book and lots of receipts)

I won't lie, this car gets driven how a Type-R should be...but i'd bet my house on it being treated better than your 1 lady owner cars with the clutch ridden, services missed, brakes constantly on, wrecked tyres, kerbed alloys, makeup stains on the interior, kids snot and pawprints all over everything, lots of start stop driving over short distances with no chance for the engine to warm up/cool down, jewellery scratches on handles and gear knobs etc

anyway, i digress...please come and view this car, you won't be disappointed - i'll be sad to see it go, but i'm selling due to impending emigration or i'd be keeping it! [infact if Canada would let me import it then i'd take it with me, but alas they have stricter rules than the UK for imports]

Test drives with proof of insurance only and a sizeable deposit

£7500 firm

No lowballs or silly offers, if you can't fathom out that this car really has had no expense spared on it then i won't even dignify you with a reply! it may seem expensive to some, but if you know what you're looking at, you'll find it really well priced - at time of posting, i couldn't find another Supercharged EP3 on Pistonheads and only two premier editions which were almost the same price!)

End of the day, its a standard looking EP3 Civic that packs a serious punch when you press the loud pedal, and you won't need to worry about anything until March at the earliest (Road tax...it'll sail an MOT)

All standard parts included if buyer wants!

Please contact via PM, email or call/text Zero-77-165-9-Six-276 (antispam) - i work shifts, so if i don't answer...leave a message and i'll get back to you!

Thanks
