Default RevHard vs. Greddy Ep3 Turbo

05 Civic Si
Which one of these turbo kits would be the best for the street and good reliable power? Also what other modifications would you guys recomend getting along with the turbo kit. Clutch maybe? Any help is greatly appreciated. Plus, any reccomendations for a suspension set up on an 05 Si?

If you're looking for reliability and quality i'd go for the Greddy kit....as i did. However i will not stress enough, HAVE IT PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED!!!! Also as a heads up.... the kit DOES NOT come with an intercooler but greddy "reccomends" that you use the IC kit they offer. It's a great IC and worth the money IMO.

I would say to go ahead and get a clutch or at least look into getting one in the near future after the install.

The RevHard Kit is more for hp gain and not reliability from what i've gathered but it does come with all the goodies you'd need for your setup i.e. BOV, FMIC, etc....

i agree with the Greddy turbo and i would recommend a strong clutch and with the suspension i have tein ss and they are pretty sweet and they ride quite well.

also i have to say something as far as forced induction, i myself do like turbos, but Jackson Racing has come up with and researched a reliable street supercharger. Go to JacksonRacings web site and just look at the info and they also have a race version too. just to give u some ideas. to each their own.
