Default Stock b16 TuRbO HelP!(DONE RESEARCH)

Alright i have been talking alot to different people. and i have a friend around where i live who works at a local shop he has a d16z6 and hes making 230 on very conservative tune.

Thats besides the point now to my questions -= SEE BELOW=-

____________________________________________


I have a b16a with full valve train. and!
my buddy who works at the local mechanic shop has a Greddy kit on his car. but i was looking around the f-i Forums and

https://honda-tech.com/forums/forced-induction-16/here-what-my-turbo-b16-civic-did-dyno-1757776/

^ that guy i know spent a HELLUVALOT less then $3,000.00 dollars on that kit. and he made 350 WHP! i

I'm not looking to make anything near that guy made on stock block/head. I was hoping for 250-270 MAX. I want reliable and fast. my stage 2 comp clutch goes in next month.

I'm getting my tax money very soon and i do not want to pop 3k on a greddy kit. The only reason id pop 3k on greddy kit is cause of its name and for sure no boost leaks, and cracked manifolds or just to avoid the headache all around.

Can anyone PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME WITH MY CONFUSION!

I do not know what to do!!! i looked on forums some guy selling turbokit 1500 bux the GT kit but i don't trust it! i don't want problems with my boost set-up i wanna throw it on tune it and turn the key.

Witch route do i go??? i do not know much about turbos but iv been watching enough videos and been around street racing enough to know that all the people out there throwing, sc61's on their b16's and they don't spool or make any kind of decent power cause turbo to big.

What i want to do is spool quick and have the power there instantly( NOT LITERALLY BUT YOU UNDERSTAND), and i want to have a great car all around for driving normal and weekend warrior! i hope this thread was spaced out enough so it did not hurt anyone's eyes i tried

cheaping out usually results in doing everything twice.

there are plenty of turbo kits in the sponsor market place on here (peakboost is the first one that comes to mind) that are just as good as greddy and are cheaper and make bigger numbers. since you dont want bigger numbers though you could prolly work out a deal with the seller for a bit smaller setup than what they have advertised and get the price down.

X2 FOR SURE.

i have cheaped out on a couple of parts and sure enough they didnt work and had to buy better replacements. lucky for me they were not "importiant" parts and they didnt cost me anything other than a simple replacement.

They these guys seem really nice, id probably use the http://www.go-autoworks-store.com/gostkit.html, and thats about in my price range of what i wanted to spend and it comes with REPUTABLE stuff!!!! and it is $1,000 dollars cheeper! haha i think i can afford fule injectors, and a fuel pump for under $1000 dollars! thanks alot i think this is the route im going to take.

hell the greddy kit did not even come with a Innercooler or pipes! and i love the super 60mm turbo i have heard alot of good things about that turbo
