Totally agree. I also think 249whp is pretty weak for a GSR. I would expect a minimum of 300whp and up to 350whp wouldn't be out the question.

Re: (wantboost)
Wow...how long as everyone been waiting for this thing to come out.
It's different from every other kit out there, that it comes with an IM included.
Should be interesting to see how much $$$$$

1 day of labor is better than paying $300 to illegaly pass
plus you can do some maintanence while the setup is off that you can't easily do with it installed.</TD></TR></TABLE>
what setup do you have?
do you run it with a cat??
interesting idea..never really thought of it that way.
more info por favor

it's on a 99 DX so it is not legal, (it is legal on 96-00 EX but only legal if there is no BOV and no intercooler, which is a retarded way to run a turbo setup)
no cat, ever
It's a great improvement over the 15g kit they offered for the 92-00 civic the compressor has two stages of whistle...the first is the same as the 15g kit but the 19t has a second "stage" of sound which is probably where it becomes more efficient than the 15g.
anyways I'm probably done with all this for awhile and will leave the kit off when I smog next month until I finish college and can afford a real turbo setup.
to the OP: if you do go with a Greddy kit don't use the Emanage, it will work but it sucks...get a chipped ECU and run crome or uber like I did, it was a night and day difference between Emanage and crome so much better.
good luck

The Greddy small intercooler IS legal. The BOV you simply hide in the fender area and they won't say crap about it.
