greddy Turbo kit

[nWoRCD89]

Alright so I have basically completed my build with only angle job and port and polish left. I am ready to buy my turbo kit but I dont know which one to buy. There is the turbonetics kits that put you around 320 with a stock engine but my engine is FAR from stock. I would like to know if anyone has used the greddy turbo kit that comes with the TD06 turbo and knows around what it would put a stock engine at after the bolt on.

i know on the ATS Racing website for mr2s it says that it takes a stock 200hp mr2 up to 265 at 15psi but thats a different engine.

i am not positive but i think the Greddy will flow enough to get you to 400hp. then again i am no turbo expert just regergitating what I read some where

[extreme135]

There is no exact hp number for any turbo kit, it all depends on the application/engine with what mods are done before being turbocharged, what shape your engine is in, your compression, and most of all what psi you are running on whichever turbo kit you buy, as far as the greddy kiy is concerned it comes only with 370cc injectors which at 320hp would be over maxing the out, with a stockengine as yours with good compession on the TD06 you could probably run about 10-12 psi max on 370cc inj. which would put you around 230-260 hp and also the greddy log manifold is very restrictive, you are better off putting the 3K you will spend on the greddy kit and build your own kit, get you something like a ground zero manifold, garrett T3/4 50 trim turbo, some at least 550cc inj. a enalthapy or JWT tuned ecu, get your own intercooler piping made or buy a full kit a walboro 255lph FP, your oil feed line and outlet for your turbo, and you will save money and be able to make 320hp+

Please explain how your engine is far from stock...

yea dont put all that money into a greddy turbo kit. dont get me wrong the kit is good and so i greddy but you can do better with less money and put the extra towards sumtin else like a diff

The engine as it sits now:

Weisco 9 Compression Pistons (Stock Bore)Eagle Connecting RodsBrian Crower V2 Cams (I and E)AEM Adj Cam GearsBrian Crower Dual Valve Spring/Retainer KitBC 31.80mm Exhaust ValvesBrian Crower 37.10mm Intake ValvesPort and PolishValve JobHead MilledAll gasket matching has been done as wellBlitz NUR Spec R Catbact Exhaust

Everything has been cleaned by means of acid dip/hot tank/ect. whatever the normal means of cleaning for the various parts are

The main things that I will need will be all the turbo oil lines, turbo itself, manifold, downpipe, fuel system ect. I have done some other things such as ngk plugs, msd ingnition booster, spark plug cables, and an intake

Why in your first post does it say that you have everything done on your engine except an angle job and port and polish on the head, but the one you just posted says that you already have a valve job and port and polished head, and why did you change your first post from saying there is a greddy kit that puts you at 320hp to a turbonetics kit, sounds a little strange to me, its ok if you do not know everything yet, thats why I am sure you are here to learn

[nWoRCD89]

everything got sent out yesterday for machine work so its in the process now its not done but its happening as we speak. the turbonetics kit says that it puts you on a stock engine somewhere around 320hp (using their website as a reference) and i was wanting to know around what hp level the greddy kit would put a stock engine at and then i could base my hp level on the stuff i have already done and get somewhere near what it would be with the greddy kit and what it would be with the turbonetics kit. im just trying to get the most out of my money is all

[coolbone28]

The greddy kit claims to put you up about 50-60 hp at 6 psi without an intercooler. What kind of hp are you looking for. If people know your goals it will make it easier to point you in the right direction.

Also mentioned above was that the greddy kit came with 370 inj. which are going to limit your power alot.

You need to think about what kind of fuel/engine management you want to use as well.

When did ka's come with timing belts?I got a t3/t4 setup for sale

[nWoRCD89]

ok i found that same number somewhere else of around 50-60hp gain on a stock motor which even with the work i have done is probably not going to be enough for me.......i will be running 93 octane all the time and i am wanting to have somewhere around 300-320hp at moderate boost level of something like 10-14psi and then 350+ at a boost level of 17+ and i would be very happy

after looking at the numbers for the td06 it just wont cut it so ill probably end up using the t3/t4 setup but i want the best spool possible and then a good hp rating on the top end

The engine management i will be using is undecided at this point but it will most likely be either jwt or enthalpy and then ill probable take it up to Battleground Engineering (well known shop of Tracy Shahorn and Dan Willie) a couple minutes away for the extensive tune and dyno

[lrb_2000]

Piece on together based off what comes with those kits, and other people kits... Get at least 555cc injectors, and a t3/t4 50 trim with either .48ar or a .63ar turbine. The lower will give you a faster spool time, but less top end. The .63 will give you full boost a little after 3000-3200rpms, and be good for about 325-350whp on 14psi.. hopefully with your engine mods.

If you buy a tuned ecu from either of them, you're going to have to also buy a AFC of some sort for them to fine tune your car with. They can't tune the ecu.

So, 555cc injectors, t3/t4 50 trim, jgs or similar log manifold, etc...

[nWoRCD89]

forgot to mention that....i just bought a hks turbo timer, greddy profec b boost controller and the apexi super afc II from a friend who totaled his gsr.....its been too long, too much money, and too many parts for me to remember and list everything all at once

im not too turbo savy with all the trim numbers....so the compressor side needs to be larger for the overall top end of the turbo and the exhaust side needs to be low for faster spool or am i just completely wrong on that statement

here you go, a little reading for youhttp://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread?id=226512

Check out some other peoples setups... find something similar to what you want, and go off that. If they have a T3/T4 making 350whp on a tuned ecu at 18psi, then that would probably be the perfect turbo for you.

If you have the money, i'd look into GT series turbos. The GT32 is popular and can put out the power you want with a fast spool time. Something like this, http://www.amsperformance.com/...d=848

that's a little spendy though. My GT35 was less than that.

[gaehrings13]

Don't use the safc 2 sell it and put it towards some other way of tuning, its only going to hold you back. You can't control timing with safc and that will be one of you main downfalls to running more boost on the ka. Im running 9lbs on my setup with safc2 currently and im making 256hp and 249tq. I want to turn up the boost so know im going to go with a rom tune. Im only planning on upping the boost to 12lbs.

[coolbone28]

well he can keep it and use the safc to fine tune his rom tune with.

Im running 1bar on just an enthalpy tune with a t3\t4 with 91 octane.

[nWoRCD89]

what is your setup and what is your power numbers

[coolbone28]

I'm running an ebay turbo kit with:t3/t04e .50 Compressor A/R / .70 Turbine A/R (these were the only specs it gave)FMIC555cc injz32 MAFSwalbro fuel pumpEnthalpy tune

I start building boost at 2200rpm. Usually hits 10-12psi at 3200.

I have not dyno'ed it yet so i dont know what im puttin down.

When i first got it turbo'd I raced my friends s14 which has I/E/H, cams, pulley set. I was shifting around 4000 and only gave it partial throttle because i had a new clutch and everything was new so i was scared and didnt want it to blow up. By 70mph i was about 3 lengths ahead....and he was redlining his car. That was at 5psi.

My other friend has a s13 redtop with t25 and his car at 12-14 psi feels like mine at about 7 or so.

I would guess that i am in the high 200's or so at around 14psi. And i am running on 91 octane. Ive been turbo just over a year now and about 5k miles. Most of which were at 12-14psi.

[nWoRCD89]

ok well this is a topic completely unrelated to the turbo kit but what all is required to do the z32 maf setup and where do you go to buy the parts or other items to do so. i had some issues searching for it and never really got anywhere with it. i wouldnt need anything else but the actual sensor and whatever else is needed since i had done pretty much everything but the turbo.

UPDATE: I put a rush on my machine work so i am supposed to be getting it back either tomorrow morning or i can go pick it up tomorrow before closing. Turbo kit is next and i decided on the stage 2 turbonetics turbo kit with the t3/t4 with the stage 3 .63a/r. does anyone have that turbo known around what rpm full boost of 14psi would hit at?

[Florida240sx]

z32 easy to wire....just got to cut your factory harness and splice. You already buy it? You got a s13? I have my iap kit for sale

[nWoRCD89]

i have a s14 kouki and I havent bought it. So really all I have to do is find a z32maf sensor and then cut the harness going to the intake and splice the new sensor in? Is there not any other things like wont it screw with your ecu or something

[S13FX]

Hey bro,

If you have the funds I would seriously look into AMS. They have some great KA turbo parts and are backed up with dyno sheets and everything.

[coolbone28]

^Well its gonna be a wait for AMS stuff. They moved locations and Im not too sure that they have gotten situated and started back up yet.

nWoRCD89- You are going to need the sensor, and harness (pigtail). It will not work with the stock ECU. You will need a reflashed ecu or some other way to controll it (piggy-back, standalone).
