Default Need help on major decision for the car please!

Well I am definitely going hondata SOON! My scenario that calls for opinions from you guys is,

A) I may just give in and do a whole buildup and stick with the greddy turbo ad boost 14 psi daily on that turbo, or

B)Leave the engine alone and switch to a T3/4 with the hondata tuned for it at 7 psi and be happy with the results?

I am not a hardcore racer but which setup would you guys choose and please don't be biased because you have a rev hard or drag.. Just need an honest suggestion if you were in my shoes and if I can take out a majority of cars mostly concerned with decent modded V8's. Can option B be sufficient enough? Thanks for reading,


Nick

all i have to say is gmedallion ran a 12.3@111 MPH on the greddy turbo with 12psi.

the greddy turbo is not whats holding you back, its the fuel solution which dumps so much fuel after 6k that you lose all your power.

just build up what you have, it's been proven from time to time....

your ECU is always the missing element out of the equation....

Cool eah man I have faith but just wanted to see what others would opinionate. I do love my greddy turbo. My setup will be as follows.. JE 9:1, crower rods, hondata 3b, new styled blockguard by SFP,holley 750cc injectors, and aem fpr. Hope to rip up the streets/strip on this setup. Thanks for the quick replies fellas,

Nick
