anyone know how much hp a greddy 18g turbo kit with intercooler boosting at 11psi should put out (on a stock motor)? im curious cuz im upgrading the stock 7psi actuator for an 11psi one.

ProEater

what motor? im guessing b18c1????

Depends on a lot of things really. Are you only using the blue box for management?

monkijunki

yeah everything is stock with the kit.

gotta burn the blue box. I don't even think you can boost that high with the death box.

no? i have the stock actuator on the trubo and an 11 psi actuator in my hands rite now. what would happen if i put the actuator on and run it with the blue box? im hoping nothing drastic would change =/

Wouldn't be a good situation. Not unless you can up your fuel with it. Do you know what your AFR's are?

you can make good power if you have at least 440 injectors and fuel controller....close to 300 whp

naw i dont. wouldnt i know that only if i get it dynoed? im still clueless bout AFR and boost. would a manual boost controller like the one c-speedracing.com shows lower my boost back to 7 psi? damn, i hope i dont have to do a lot of fussing with my car to get it to work correctly. i asked greddy if 11 psi would affect anything they said "naw dont worry about it, it'll work fine." =/ that greddy rep prolly dont know anything.

A Manual Boost Controller (MBC) can't make your boost go any lower than your wastegate spring dictates. So, if you swap out your 7lb one for an 11lb one, the lowest you can go is 11 lb. If you want to bump up your boost, just use a MBC with your existing setup to go from 7 to 11, but make sure you take care of your fuel problem first so you don't lean out.

Oh...with the blue box...you might be able to safely eek a couple extra pounds of boost over the stock greddy settings since it runs so rich...but I wouldn't jump from 7 all the way to 11. On my civic's greddy kit, I went from the stock 5.5psi setting to 7.5psi on just the blue box with no problems.

When I upped boost from 7 psi to 10-11 using only the blue box and 310s, my a/f barely changed at all....It was always around 11.5 on the w/b.....This was on a ls motor..

I think the key word here is:

Using 310's. I was just going to suggest that, it should help.

Actually, that is cool you'v been able to talk with a Greedy Rep...
that is nice, in year of trying... it didn't send one reply, I even got some
Status delivery failure mail.... they are not too user FAQ friendly

I have talked to a couple people at greddy before.....They did try there best w/ all the minor problems I was having and helped me through everything...They seem knowledgeable about there own products though...(as they should)

why not get an mbc or an electric boost controller and turn it up using that???

on me. I was thinking of the SOHC greddy kit, which does not include injectors.

monkijunki

yeah i've talked to the rep again and he said it was ok to use 11psi with the blue box and the 310cc injectors. hopefully when i get time to do a compression test and everything is good, i'll put the kit back on, otherwise, whoever buys my kit gets a free 11psi upgrade =P
