Default Another Turbo Option for new Civic Si

http://www.procivic.com/pages-....html

claims 290hp @ 6psi. Uses GT25R turbo with the upgrade option of a GT28R prices looks pretty good. Only thing I would question is this TSI tuning unit it comes with.

just wondering why you think that?

EDIT: doh math owns me.... 180*1.46 (46%) = 260. If i bought this kit and I didnt see the claimed 46% id be pissed.

I couldnt really think of anything else to ask him so if you have questions please give them a call. The kit is the same price as the greddy kit by the way.

integrated turbo timer and boost gauge... sounds pretty sweet to me. The price is nice too. We just need someone to buy it and test it out for us

how much do you need i'll send a check. lol 2nd stage injectors I heard was the way to go I raced an ecliped gt(last body style) from 50 and he pulled about 2 1/2 cars on me. so I asked what he had .his replay was a 6cyl auto paused........ then said with 5 psi.. Ohh OK!! he had a second stage set up and it works well. he was running 14 in the 1/4.. I like the AJP set up but not sure about there R/D and would like to see more people with it to find out if its really good or not. but yea that intake is fugly!

Dozens of people have bought the AJP kit...

Over $50K has been invested into the AJP on R&D...give 'em a call. F.uck what everyone else says, find out for yourself.

And look at all the free advertisement you give them. Once custom tuning is available AJP will be just a memory. This kit is capable of blowing AJP out of the water with the GT28R. and you can do it for WAY WAY less than the $7000 you will pay for AJP's stage 2.

I have never heard of this company before and price just looks too reasonable. Personally, I would only purchase from a company that has proven itself with this car. Who did the fuel tuning for this system?

Personally, I would rather pay a few extra bucks and get a turbo from a proven company like Greddy or AJP.

But, to each his own.
