Default sohc greddy turbo civic ex help!!

hey guys i was just wondering if any one can help me out. i was going to pick up a greddy turbo but it only come with the turbo, downpipe and manifold for $300. i was wondering if that is worth it because i still have to buy the piping and stuff. does anyone know how much will i spend after i get the turbo. thanks

Well lets make a list of what you'll need then you can search and figure out how much it will all cost.

Turbo
Manifold
Downpipe
Intercooler and Piping
Blow Off Valve
Some sort of engine management
Upgraded clutch
Fuel Pump

No need for injectors with stock greddy turbo. No need for boost controller either.

It's not too bad. When I had my del sol I had the greddy kit. I paid 1470 shipped for the full kit but that didn't come with BOV, intercooler or gauges. So all in all I think I spent 2500 with brand new greddy intercooler, brand new turboxs bov, gauges and I did AFC hack as fuel management which worked well but I'd recommend def. tuning it.

my original setup was
15g, greddy mani, d/p and bluebox, i/c piping, boost gauge, oil lines, couplers, t-bolt clamps, type-s bov, and its been running like that for almost a year, spent 1200 all together for it.

upgrading now, emanage+ support tool, 450's this is costing me around 500 including cleaning and repairing the injectors without tuning.

emanage, IC piping from summitracing, oil lines, act clutch-stock wont last long,small intercooler if you get a huge one you'll block flow to the radiator, invest in cooler thremo and upgrade fan,you dont have to but recomend APR head studs,BOV,exhaust if you already dont have 1,plugs wires n filters... i spent $1800 and for a solid 200hp its been 6months and no problems -cheap reliable fun-

deff get it tuned....

Ill give u turbo,manifold,intercoolerpiping,downpipe and 2.5 in exhaust for 550 turbo has no shaft play.... And all u need is this cause i had this setup on my coupe at one point....

-Missing link
-Fmu if u aint doin standalone
-Turbo
-Manifold
-intercooler and piping
-vacumm hoses
-BOV if wanted
-downpipe
-oil lines and all fittings
-The circular clamps and silicone couplers
-Tapped oil pan for return

Car wil run good with greddy setup on stock injectors if thats all u got...hope that helps..
