Im going to be purchasing a greddy kit soon & would like to see where i would stand... I have a automatic transmission though but oh well lol. What do you guys run, mid 14's? 190-200 whp?

 

BUMP

 

i would use the money and get a stickshift, and go from there

 

what size turbo si it? and how much boost?

 

This is your transmission:



This is your transmission on boost:



Get the picture? Your transmission won't hold up well. NEHOOO...Yeah, you could run 14's with that kind of HP, figuring that's what the ITR"s run, but again, your car is heavier, and the auto tranny will slow your car down, being long gears and such...

 

everyone knows greddy kits are pretty slow..try a different kit. like drag or f-max

 

I would first of all swap for a 5-speed. Then buy a Drag or even a good quality used kit. They make better power then a Greddy and are cheaper.

 

before anyone starts knocking on greddy, they are NOT SLOW KITS.........and no the turbo (Greddy spec 18G) is not small.

you have to understand what the engineers had in mind when they designed the kit (steet legal) meaning MUST PASS even in CA.

so for what the kit is, its a very well designed kit, with a real EMS (emanage) included and injector upgrades, which most others dont offer.

now with a GSR, the greddy kit will make 250+whp at 10psi with the proper DP/Exhaust setup.

on my LS (lower compression 190 to be exact) with 150k miles, I was able to make 230WHP with a 2.5" DP flared to 3" 3" fles, and 3" carsound cat, all the way back through a thermal.

now at 10psi on an LS with no other mods, is 230whp and 220lbs trq slow? compared to what 115whp stock?

oh tuned on hondata s200b with RC 550c injectors by Boosted Hybrid.

again its a good kit, internally gated but still not bad, I would recommend not spending 2500 on it without IC and BOV, but there are a lot of used ones all over for much less.

 

^ Exactly. Greddy is a very nice kit. I haven't driven an Integra with one, but I installed and drove a 00 Si with the kit and it was great even on the stock boost. Very smooth power band

 

The Greddy kit is very nice. When I had a 98 Gsr with this kit, I ran a 13.1 with 13" Lenzo and slicks on. By the way, car was untuned running 9 lbs

 

yeah i love how people automatically think that the Greddy kit is slow... classic NooB answer. but anywho, i would go with the greddy kit if u r just looking for a good daily driven, reliable, smooth powerband kit. and the other thing, dont worry about swapping to a manual... if he has an auto let him work with it!!! jeesus. but, on the other hand, if u r looking for a great drag car than the greddy kit along with an auto wont turn out to be a great time together...just something to think about

 

not wanting a drag car at all! im addicted to turbo's & a honda + turbo = rare in my town, only seen one ever & it was very nice + my car is daily driven...I live less than a mile from work & thats pretty much the only place i drive.. well besides cruising thurs-sat lol :D

 

minuse well get a fake fmic+bov noise maker

 

*redirects everyone to the egg-xmission post* your tranny will not like shifts while under boost, and with the long gearing you will be under boost for excessive periods of time, combined with the blue box, sounds like a dead and broken combo to me

 

what year is your motor ? i got a auto comp that is reprogramed by jet performance & u can re-programe it for free when u do upgrads. i did a full conversion so i have no use for it anymore

 

ive had my greddy kit for 6 months now, its cheap,fun,quick and i passed emissions a couple weeks ago with slighty built exhaust and at 7lbs as far as times i havent made it out to the track yet but im not calling wrx's fast or slow but ive wasted a few along with some built gsr's and ls's if u want cheap fun safe daily driven power go with greddy...or my mom shes cheap and fun and i think shes safe

 

I like my Greddy kit. Numbers in sig at 10.5 psi. It is a very high quality kit that has minimal problems. The powerband is very broad and the turbo has more than enough umph for 300whp, so don't knock it till you try it. It is a great kit for the street.

 

anyone have a link to this kit? im doing LS-t in the near future.

 

i have a greddy kit as well, and i am pushing 12 psi, and the kit is great, with a great power band, awsome for the streets!

 

I don't want to thread jack but if any of you (those esp. who live in CALI) need some Greddy "plaques"....


Hit me up

 

i just helped a friend put his greddy kit on and i know 2 others with it and they all run fine for everyday and give the car a good boost for there money. as for your tranny situation, thats another story.

just make sure you dont buy one with a toasted turbo, despite seller saying it "has 0 shaftplay" and "spins free like butter"
