Default Greddy turbo kit for rsx?

hey guys, with a 2003 acura rsx-s, is the greddy turbo kit at 7 psi a good idea for hp? Would you also recomend the intercooler kit from greddy? Has anyone else done this and have dyno tests? Also, if this isn't the best bang for the buck on this car, what other turbos would you recomend or other modifications. Oh yeah, if i got a turbo, at what psi would i have to start changing the internals or the compression ratio. thanks in advance

no complaints here. i had one of the first batch kits and had problems in the beginning. answers to your questions depend on how much power u want. i've had my greddy kit 7psi for almost a year. no problems. if u want bigger power go cybernation.

Id go with cybernation. But a lot of ppl have good running greddy kits. They jus need to be wired properly when installing

if you don't plan to boost 10psi everyday then no.
