Default DC5 Turbo questions.

Hello H-tech, I was wondering what the best turbo kit for a DC5 RSX would be what do you guys recommend? What has the most HP increases and good psi, what brand...keep in mind. Looking for street legal kit and good hp gains. Any Suggestions post comments please

As long as you abide by the laws, yes! But who the hell would want to go turbo and stay emissions legal!

Try a Greddy kit. At just 6.5psi I made 220whp. Stock everything (yes, even stock exhaust).

Greddy kits are known for their superb quality, reliability and power! Best all around kit in many people's opinions. If you want high power (500+whp), look at FullRace kits.

Full-Race kit is the best "kit" on the market right now, hp per psi, manifold, fitment, you name it. But it also comes at a price, its the most expensive kit on the market.

What are your hp goals? There are cheaper, reliable kits out there but their not going to put out the extreme hp FR does.

Peakboost is also releasing a kit soon which should be a cheaper and still high hp capable kit.

Full-Race.com or check in the for sale forced induction for sale forums here. Kits are in the 4500 dollar range and you still need engine management i.e. K pro.

If you were to get the basic Greddy kit your looking at these things to make 12 PSI safely and effectively:

1st and most important- upgrade the stock Greddy oil lines. I know of 3 cars personally that did not know/were to lazy and they burned to the ground.
Intercooler upgrade
Proper Engine Management not Emanage!!
750CC Injectors
New Clutch, stock will hold depending on its condition but not long AT ALL
Boost Controller

and a good tuner
