Anybody currently runing the GREDDY t67 25g kit???

I am going to be picking up the Greddy t67 kit used off my friend. I have read reviews on it after searching on here but there isn't any recent threads. Any current evo owners running this????

if so please provide me with your own reviews. i know the manifolds tend to crack. what else should i know, upsides and downsides...??

thanks in advance

From the stories I heard.....besides cracking manifolds, this T67 turbo is extremely laggy.

The other downside is that Greddy uses these funky flanges on their kits (I guess their own design) which cannot be used with other manufacturers turbos. You would need a completely new flange welded on if you want to run a different frame turbo.

I have used the turbo and am trying to sell it! Its a pretty good turbo and spooled alot like a 30r but with 650HP on race gas possible. I made 443 HP and 410 LBFT at a 5500 ft elevation. And thats on a 2.0

Not to bad of a turbo, for old school. E85 around 550. Spool is not to bad.
Really small hotside. Power falls off up top.

Spool is not horrible on this turbo. Damn hot side is extremely small. I bet you could see 20lbs by 4500.

Basically an older 35R-ish turbo right?

Probably isnt so bad, will make good power. The spool will probably be the worst part.

thanks for the responses guys. i know they have two different options for hotside sizes and this one has the smaller one. 8cm i believe. Supposedly spool up is better but it does die out at high rpm and boost.

im hoping for some e85 around here but im in NH and we have yet to get any stations....

prockish u ever run more than 23 psi??

bump...

also the intake needs to be 4" where it meets the turbo, any recomendations for a stock replacement piece that would work well? i currently just have the rmr open filter with adapter

I had pleasant experience with this turbo as well. Spools 500rpm faster than 35r. Does not lay down up top on 8cm exhaust housing. The 10cm housing is what makes this turbo dull boy. It is capable of around 560whp dynojet.

I have been on a tuning pull in a t67'd car. I was actually pretty surprised. I expected it to come on full alot later than it did. Grated this car was meth injected and a *i think* a 2.2 build but I was impressed with it. It was pretty smooth too, but I think the smoothness came a ton from the quality tune

That being said, it was too big for my tastes
