I think the greddy turbo kit comes complete. You have to buy an intercooler, but I think greddy would make you a deal if you were to buy the complete package at one time.

You may want to trash the emanagement ecu they give you for Kpro.

No, go with Revhard or Cybernation kit. GReddy is all mine. j/k. U should get the GReddy intercooler, GREddy BOV,Hondata K-Pro,Quaife Diff, and DEFINITELY some hardcore STOPPERS.

... sold the RSX for a Si? so u either downgraded from a typeS or u bought the sister car...... interesting tradein.

either get kpro or aem ems. I hear emanage is "reasonable" but u might as well get the way better fuel management and tuning tool.

greddy turbo kit w/ fmic and bov you can find new for about 3200$ and on the stock emanage settings and 6 psi you should see numbers around 220 whp .


and tuning on emanage will show minimul gains *227 whp at 6 psi here* but it was mildly tuned in new york and im in tn so im sure if i were in new york i'd be at like 230 or some **** like that.


but if you are going to be doing a bunch of crazy **** to your car , go kpro for real ... but if your pretty much done modifying the car , stick with emanage because kpro would be overkill.. and if you get it! have fun buddy its great

Just depends on how far you want to go with it. You can get the basic Greddy Kit with intercooler and run like that and be happy. If you want to go whole hog and really crazy car there are a host of things you can do.

Give us a better idea of what you are looking for out of your car, and what you plan to do with it, and we can make better suggestions.

I advise against a turbo actually unless you have a **** load of money. N/A is the way to go but obviously that wont get you the same power a Turbo would. Anyways its all about money if you willing to tune the car every 4K or less depending on the psi.

I also own an s2000 so i didn't need the rsx. I want a turbo kit that dosnt require me to do internals. So If I had Greddy and Ran it at 8psi i think an intercooler would be enogh with a turbo timer. Should I go jackson race supercharge then?
