my friend got that kit and he was VERY dissappointed! only came out to like 398 to the wheels

 

ahha my goal is 400 whp
how funny is that

i refer to my car is MR9
misternine

strange how my previous cars were all C1 thru C6
meaning christine one thru 6 becauses they were all evil
ala steven king

ok well back to the subject

pros and cons of the said referred kits please
and hard facts and no bullsh*t

i dont want the usual i heard this or that
as this thread is getting nowhere fast

 

Most who try this kit use the 10cm housing. That makes the kit laggy. The 8cm is plenty big to max out the airflow. Good for 525whp at 30psi. The 8 cm will spool the turbo much faster. I had an 8cm/25g on my mirage and tried a 50trim bb as well. The 25g kicked but on the 50trim. No comparison. the 50trim spooled 200rpm faster but had no topend. The 25g pulls harder and harder up top. Road race made 520whp with this kit but used the laggy 10cm housing.

 

thats information i was looking for
what hotside does greeddy use since my oe 16G is a 10.5
i dont see how a larger 25G wouldnt make power
plus the good thing is its a complete setup
everything needed
some kits still require some fabwork and little things
hence why i looked at greddy

 

Your oem 16g has a twin scroll turbine housing. The stock 9.8cm is said to flow about like a single scroll 7cm. The greddy turbo comes with either 10cm or 8cm single scroll. Plus the turbine wheel is a td06h. Twice the flow of a td05h. Trust me. If you want to try this turbo get it with the 8cm. I have seen a local with srt4 dyno 535 whp on a 8cm/25g as well.

 

dude you should get the HKS 3037 Turbo Kit, it's the best for road racing, also the 50 trim is nice, but i like my hks, it is not laggy at all, i made 412hp, at 25psi taper down 23, on pump, thats the right kit for road racing, as for the greddy kit waste of money, and to laggy

 

are you talking about their so called
HKS time attack turbo kit?

 

yeah man, it's great for road racing and highway runs, which i like, but if you drag race with it, this kit is not the right thing, 50 trim would be better for a all-round car.

 

is greddy on this site
I saw they have one on their evoix
from sema
i wonder how that one is

then again there is the Evogreen turbo out
i think thats waht its called
that new 20G which might work
but no ballbearing option i dont think
just plug and play

drag racing....boring.......
I cant see waiting around all day for 3 passes of how many seconds
not much seat time
or you can have up to 4-6 hours on a weekend at the track
you learn how to drive the car


yes i call my car MR9

hell the last 6 cars were christine 1 thru 6 after the steve king movie
as dubbed by my mom
shes said my cars hated her

 

i made 500whp and 428tork on the greddy kit, but it is laggy as hell. third gear 48k to 5k 30psi. just my thoughts, i love it till i found out what i really wanted.

 

well a friend of mines made 430 on pump gas with his but it was a 05 mr with all the bolts ons and 280 hks cams and a sean ivory tune

 

Sean Ivory?

 

hehe
i think you mean sean ivey
