have any of you ever heard of the greddy turbo kit on a ITR?....will I be the first?

 

greddy uses really small turbos in there kits, correct?

 

Never really done much research on turbos but i know the one for the SOHC is small so I figure the B series one is small too

 

the DOHC turbos are TD-05 18g's....it will push 20psi out of it pretty easily. the sohc's a TD-04 housings...I am not sure but I think it is a 14g....basically I want a quick spooling turbo that will push some power.....and I got a super good deal on the kit

 

What are you basing this on?

People on this board are reporting that the wastegate doesn't regulate boost very well over 17 psi.

 

well, the 18g itself will push that....you need to upgrade the WG flapper if you want to run high boost....I have a ITR here. I am runnin 10psi on a inline pro head gasket with a ton of fuel and tuning when the car is on the road. the 18g is a DSM turbo so you can use the big WG flappers they use

 

although it will spool quickly, their small turbo might not provide the powerband on top end. its not the best kit out there in my opinion, custom is the way to go... - research and put your parts together. - consider all modification you may need in the future, and buy the right parts in first place, so you don't mess it up and spend more money.

from https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=369119 - don't know for sure if its greddy, i thought the heatshield kinda looks like it.

ohh it's not the best out there, but I want to be different...not many people buy this kit and really fiddle with it....I mean it is a 50state legal kit . the DP is restrictive and this kit is goin on a ITR not a GSR so it has to be modded to fit...I am porting the DP flange and runnin a custom 2.5" DP....I am also tossing the FCU and injectors and runnin 440's and a hack.....I think it will run ok

 

i'm not sure, but the kit for ls should fit better, at least inrecooler piping so you don't have to do much modifications. btw.. 50 state legal without the intercooler kit, at least without the bov

I know that that LS will fit better but like I said I got a awesome deal on this kit from my friend(who is a HT member)....the kit is brand new and he is giving me the Profec-B, all gauges(egt, boost) and the entire kit with FMIC and all piping and parts

 

im with reid on this one..

 

with a upgraded flapper my friends 17c frank JR pushes 21psi with no creep at all....I am pushing 10psi here so who cares about 17psi
