Default AJP turbo kit

Has anyone installed the AJP turbo kit? If so what kind of horse power have you gotten? Did you have an exhaust or not? Also did you run just the hondata reflash or add the AEM FIC too.

Let me know your boost levels and corresponding power numbers. They claim 4.4 psi is good for 300 wheel horse power and 8.5 psi is good for 375 wheel hp. Sounds high to me but they say it's all in the tune and the heads flow really good they say in the k20. The kit is more money than others also.

Let me know!

Maybe it's a passive marketing gimmick for the company.

Come on man, you can't bag on people because they lack creativity. I enjoy the users who create names from the car they own or wished they owned or use to own.

Yeah they suck so bad that Honda of America Racing Team has their kit on their Time Attack car. Their kit is sick, I personally have a Greddy kit and saw the whole debacle on 8th civic about them, but I wish I would have gotten it now. My Greddy turbo has died and I'm moving to a Garret turbo, probably using their manifold. Hondata works with AJP on development of the AJP car, which is making over 925hp now... that is insane. I dont know of any K-Series making that power. The only drawback with their kit is that if you want to go over 450 or so whp you have to use something like the eManage Ultimate in addition to the Hondata reflash (until the new Hondata solution is released of course).

As for my personal experience, I talked to the owner of AJP about 2 weeks ago... just called about his manifold and he spent almost an hour answering all my dumb questions and helping me out for no other reason than he is an enthusiast. I thought that was pretty cool, he could have easily gotten me off the phone (especially knowing I didnt own his kit) and said he was busy, but didn't. That was really cool in my book. BTW, they have over 400 kits installed now I was told.

My 2 c's.

OP does. He agreed to upload pics as soon as he gets them. At least that's what I was told via pm.

As far as other members. 24boosted has the Greddy turbo....and a few other people have the Supercharger setup from Comptech. Haven't seen anybody with the AJP kit on here yet.

Just get the S/C....I don't even know if that AJP kit is street legal in CA

Not to mention you'll spend well over 6 grand on the AJP kit and all it's optional extras that are recommended to get the claimed numbers out of the kit.

The kit itself is cheaper than that. About 5K. But to get the high power numbers....you need to get all the extra "goodies" that come along with it....just like pretty much any other kit out there.

You could find one cheaper.....doesn't mean you'll get the same power results though.

Me personally I prefer the Comptech S/C.
