Default Okay, thinking turbo'ing the hybrid...piece it together or go Drag Gen 3?

Well, I decided to put a turbo on my hybrid B18C1 hatchie. I was toying with the idea of going all out roadcourse...then decided I just wanted a FAST *** car. I will hit the roadcourse with my ITR.

Same thing with me, but I want a turbo kit that is reliable and will last...I personally was thinking about going with the Greddy kit for a 94-95 GSR motor, which I have in my Hybrid...but it seems a lot of people seem to like the Drag 3...what's the difference?

As far as I know, the DRAG is not CARB legal, while the GReddy is. The drag will give you a little more oomph, but I'm sure the GReddy should win with quality and reliability. I would personally go with the GReddy. Fit and function are among the best.

But i have noticed that Greddy only makes it for the 96-2000 GSR OBDII...not my OBDI 95 GSR motor....I have not seen a 94-95 Greddy turbo kit developed yet...or maybe i have missed it...

GReddy turbo kits do lag (no pun intended) in getting into production. Check this link http://www.greddy.com/products/turbo_frame.htm . It says the 94-95 will be TBA. I would have assumed they would have made an OBDI version before the OBDII kit, but oh well. I guess sit tight until one comes out.
