Greddy Turbo Kit

[xsvfrce]

I am looking for opinions on the new Greddy Turbo Kit.

http://www.i-m-racing.com/grtukit249.html

I know it is new to the market but I am considering buying it for my S14. The link above will give you a good idea of whats included. It is one of the cheaper pre-assembled kits I have seen. I haven't had the S14 long and aside from the things that are the same between the S14 and S13 I don't know a ton about them yet. I would be satisfied with high 12's out of her eventually. This set up will be connected to a full custom exhaust and a Walbro fuel pump while still running on stock internal (obviously). Some of you gurus out there let me know what you think.

Thanks, --X--

Your going to have issues boostin. As far as I know the Greddy kit has a flaw in the sense that the TD06SH-20G has an internal wastegate & combined with their downpipe causes boost creep at higher boost. IM no expert so research that on your own. My friend runs a stock Greddy kit without the FMIC (he will install the FMIC soon) and its pretty damn fast. Overall its a pretty decent kit though the manifold is a ***** to install cuz of how difficult it is to reach the bolts and much like the IAP kit it will cause you possible brake line issues if you have a SE with ABS. Also from my research the E-manage is preprogrammed for a 96 OBDII ecu and 95 S14s will require a slight change in the tune.

One of my friends has this kit, he said it was easy to install and that he recomends the kit. He hasnt had any problems with it sincem he installed it.

Thanks for your input guys. I would be interested in seeing Dyno numbers from this kit if anyone has them or even what kind of 1/4 mile times this kit is putting down. I will continue to search for that stuff, just thought if anyone had them off hand.

nice kit, i think i am going to get one

[S14tat]

redka-t has one and lookin at the dyno and flaws that it has, i'm not too impressed with it.

running the stock 6-7 psi with no front mount your expecting to see 190-200whp and with the front mount option raising the boost to 9 psi your looking to see 220-230whp.

definitly better kits out there, try the importautoperformance kit. that kit looks sick, geo has it on his car and is very happy with it.

I am wanting to get one of these greddy kits also. I have also heard about the problems with the internal wastegate but I dont think it that big of a deal the cheapest place I found these kits at was sport compact only.com they are like $2400 thats pretty good for what you get! there was a article in modified mag about a year ago that had a s14 with this kit instaled in it that was making 365 hp I am wondering what are the 1/4 mile times of these kits? I would like to know if any one has info!!

There are no brake line clearence issue like your kit, and I have the biggest booster (auto with abs). The kits awesome, spools quick and pulls hard all the way to redline. The only problem that I encountered was mounting the manifold but a couple minutes with a file and it was fine.

For what you get its an awesome deal that IMO is better then IAP because you sacrifice an intercooler/bov for an awesome fuel system and piggyback ecu. But do your own research and see which one better suits your needs.

its a ok kit , i have one for about 1 year now , yes it has problems with overbosting if you change downpipe but if you leave stock downpipe it wont be a problem , another thing is get a blow of valve and rec it back to intake or you will have problems with car dying . so far the higest whp i got out of this kit is 330 whp at 16 psi runnig very rich with jwt ecu and 740cc injectors . after some fine tunning im hoping to get close to 380 whp at 18 psi , but will seeif you have this kit for a while check thouse silicone reducers they are really cheep and they like to crack and leak

Nice....300+ WHP, gives me something to look forward to. I have this kit, and I left the stock turbo pipe that goes to the stock downpipe and just gutted both cats. Car definately moves at 6PSI and no boost creep. I have a 95 and the car definately runs rich. I have had no problems with this kit. I just recently posted my 1/4 mile run with my Gtech on KA-T.org. I ran a 14.4@98mph. This car is definately a low 14sec car at 6PSI w/no intercooler. Once I get my FMIC mounted and I turn up the boost a bit with a good tune, I'll post some more numbers.

$2400 is pretty good for the kit and is only a few hundred over cost. definitly good buy for that price.

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but I was thinking about getting this kit. I have a question in terms of compatbility and the 1995 240sx. Mine is a base model not sure about the ABS. Anyone have a 95 that can tell me what to expect to change?THanks.

anyone have a link to the site has these for 2400?

Price has increased a bit since guys up there^^^^ were saying it could be had for $2400.00. But remember, it looks like you have to have OBDII to run all the components in this kit. Since you have a 95, your S14 will need a small change in tune like someone said above.

[GEO]

you need the OBDII to run the emanage. Just run a SAFC-2 and sell the emanage.

Heres a question, could i buy an ebay fmic instead of the $900 greddy one? Would the ebay fmic fit with the greddy pipes? Or would I need to make pipes?

[Adikt]

here are some pics of my kit with the greddy intercooler as long as the ebay piping is similar it should work







hope that helped

[emperor_lunchbox]

what is the difference between OBDI and OBDII for this kit. Is it the tune? Meaning could I just get it retuned? Or is it fitment? Meaning will I need to add a harness or mess with wiring?

[OKRB20DET]

hahahah!!

i see some heat protecting around the BMC because obviously if it gets to hot it will melt..

but aren't zip ties made of plastic too?

haha just find that funny

[kornaz]

I think it's overpriced. 3 grand and no FMIC? Buy separate pieces, and make a kit yourself.

[emperor_lunchbox]

I was originally piecing together a kit, Im done with that. I dont have the time or patience to wait for the parts I need and then ask questions about compatibility and get flamed. Im totally done with that. I dont mind spend some money for a complete bolt on kit, I also already have an intercooler so that isnt a big deal. I just want to know whats involved with making a 95 compatible with this kit? I have heard that a 95 really doesnt need adjusting, it will just run rich. Anyone have evidence?
