Default Drag or RevHard

Here is the dilemma, is the Drag III kit better than the Rev Hard kit? If anyone has experience with this kit on a GSR powerplant I would like some input, I am trying to find some prices for these kits, does anyone know of some good places to buy these kits that give low prices? Is there a better bolt on kit than this? Like XS Engineerings' turbo kit? Any info will help me get to the darkside.

IMO i believe revhard is the best out of the box kit out on the market right now...if u dont have the money for a EMS the fmu is pretty reliable if u stay around concervative boost. Revhard

I like the DRAG better strictly because they actually provide you with a pre-turbo air intake with a filter.

I don't like how RevHard leaves you hangin right there. Unless they've changed that by now....?

i say revhard based on precision turbo if youre lucky and wastegate placement is slightly better plus the better wastegate.

Though I'm not really into kits I would go with a RevHard setup over Drag anyday... Overall they're just a lot nicer

Just curious but why would it only work on Civic's right now... That EH in the pic above is running Integra IC piping so if that's what makes a difference I don't see why it wouldn't work (that motor has a GSR head but I don't know for sure what the bottom end is)... Again, I don't really know, we never use them so you could be right... I just don't see why wouldn't be interchangeable (even if they are made to wrap around the charge pipes different)...

you make a good point. i was simply saying that b/c when i called revhard they were like "sorry civs only for right now." but i have a feeling that it would fit. who wants to buy me one to try out on my revhard integra?

Some ppl have had Drag's crack on them, and also the WG is placed on the #4 runner, which isnt good and contributes to boost creep. On the F-Max and RevHard and Max Rev manifolds the wg placement is more towards the middle.

yeah must be a typo, at first I was like

As for the kit, I like the Revhard, its just a better kit all around. Quality pieces, affordable price. Both are capabale of the same power, I just like the Revhard parts better

Delta II Turbonetics?? When we first started building FI motors ~3 years ago we had a lot of problems with that gate, overboosting, etc... Sorry if I'm wrong, just taking a wild guess... Tial
