Most of the time time u do not need to remove a/c if u run the cast manifolds that come with most kits (greddy, turbonetics, edelbrock), the time when u need to remove a/c is when u use a high flow mandrel bent manifold.

for the price the greddy kit is a really good kit. pushes some really good numbers. you dont have to remove anything really, it'll just be a tight fit. on top of that the best part is its smog legal.

Im not 100% sure, but I dont think the lower a/c lines get in the way of the I.c piping, they dont look like they would to me, you might need to grind the radiator support to let the piping thru though

I'm actually looking at the GReddy turbo too for my stock GSR. Just wanna keep my internals relatively stock, 'n run about 220 whp after tuning. I know fuel components needs attention, but do I need an aftermarket radiator too, to keep the temperatures down?

Would the valvetrain and bottom ends need attention if I want to make that kind of power?

My stock radiator did not fit... It technically "fit" but once I started up the motor my wastegate slammed into the radiator and that was the end of that. It all depends on what manifold you choose.
Every application will be different and no two turbo setups are the same

How much do you have to spend and how much power in the long term?
