Default Budget for Greddy Turbo? or anything else?

been doing some searching. i like the DD aspect and i'm not looking for more than 290-300whp. i'm more interested in the increased torque at lower RPMs. i was looking at S/C because they are "cheaper" but i like the low-end torque the Greddy offers. looked at the SOT S/C as well. any other recommendations for my goals? my budget is around 5-6k. is that enough to run a reliable greddy setup? ap2

For your budget and needs, Greddy kit with AEM engine management sounds like a good deal

Greddy sounds perfect for you, and no need for standalone engine management

As long as you don't make any upgrades that should be a good budget.

I know TurboKev has a kit with a new manifold that is in perfect condition.

cool. thanks for the responses.

do i need a new clutch or anything with the greddy kit? i know it says stock internals and all. but for safety and reliability sake, do i need to replace anything so that i don't run into problems later on?

no u should be fine.... Stock clutch is sufficient for the kit.... Just put some 1 step colder plugs in, maybe a BOV depending on where u are located... the kit is very much drop in...a good exhaust also helps with numbers tho...

Ask Joeyballs :-D


For what you want ( low end torque & hp goal) and your 5-6k budget.


Greddy kit and a Aem EMS w/tune would be PERFECT for your goals. literally
