On an RSX Type-S, what turbo brand would be better to install, apexi or greddy and why? thx

 

What do you mean by "better"? I was also un-aware about there being an Apex-i kit available. Check into Cybernations. I think their kit is probably the best as far as RSX specific is concerned.

 

k thx

 

it kind of depends on what you want. if you want reliability, I would go with a name brand such as greddy. They are a pretty reliable company. They did have a problem in the beginning, but what new product doesn't. However I heard alot of people are loving this kit now and with Hondata tuning it is getting alot of power with reliability. I also heard good things about cybernation. But with a Stage 2 or anything above that you should build your motor. A stock motor can't handle massive power like that for long. If I were you I would go greddy and hondata. this almost gives you 300 hp to the wheels at like 7 psi.

 

thx alot

 

i'm greddy ***** but if the install isn't perfect u will have some issues.

 

hks should be coming out with at turbo kit sometime soon. i heard.

 

you say 300whpy with hondata tuning and about 7 psi, im assuming you got a type s? any clue on the base?

 

300 a 7psi seems like a huge number no matter what. for the greeddy turbo id guess 260 or less at 7psi and thats tuned up

 

taken from CRSX
Oh and just to show u guys where im at, at this point, my car made 246-250whp and 221 torque at
6000rpm and this is on the low cam at 8.5psi. And for all of you wondering what my mods are:

Greddy Turbo kit w/ intercooler
Greddy Type-S BOV
RC 750cc injectors
custom 3" mandrel bent w/no cat and Apexi N1 turbo muffler
NGK iridium BKR8EIX
K-Pro
Greddy Profec B 2

 

if you are looking for the a trubo for the base model look at ephatch.com especially if you are in cali, you can pick up the revhard turbo kit for 3399 installed with before and after dyno and hondata reflash, or if you are not in the cali area it is 3399 shipped with hondata reflash. just read back and realized you are an s, but it might work for yours too contact them

 

where can u get it 3399 installed?

 

Sane 007.... I'm not trying to be an *** here, but you need to put up the rest of that post before you throw those numbers around. His rev limiter is a 6000 rpms, and he hasn't even hit high cam yet. With more tuning which is coming for his car (stopped due to boost creep) there is more power coming, so those numbers you threw out are misleading to those who haven't read that post on clubrsx.

Yea in Car & Driver or some magazine they had a 4cyl challenge and a Type-S with a prototype HKS system won.

 

i checked ephatch.com and that website account has been suspended. 3400 seemed cheap to, but not in the good deal type of cheap. Maybe the website being frozen is an indication of their product.

 

I would say Top Fuel but they dont have one out yet and not sure if they ever will..... go cybernation

 

Greddy or cybernations

 

I just got done installing a Revhard kit on a RSXs for one of my guys. I like the kit because it comes with the Hondata reflash or you can upgrade to the Kpro for $500 more . With a 3" exhaust, no cat, RC 550s, 10psi, 93oct gas, and a good retune on the Kpro it will make 300hp. You must find a good tuner to get much more than 260-270hp.

 

Yeah id say cybernation if youre looking for power and get greddy if you want reliablitiy.

LOL i asked the same question and i dont know myself

 

That's kind of low for 10psi.
