I can finally go FI'd so I'm considering the new GReddy bolt on kit (with tuning since it comes ready for AP1)

I am concerned that being a new system I will be the guinea pig for it. Is this a valid concern? or is getting any turbo kit becoming a guinea pig?

Thanks

p.s. is this a bad idea at all

 

You have an ap2 so you have to get it tuned.

 

You'd be the first AP2 with it, thats the guinea pig

 

yah, hence the words in the parenthesis in my OP.

just tryng to figure out if there is risk here

 

actually the dude at GReddy with an 06 has it installed.

SO - 270-300HP for roughly $4,300 with an untested kit, sound like a bad idea? Is an SC a better idea?

 

I am sure they have had it on a few cars already. A doctor doesn't try out a new surgery on the general public, they have tests done long before we even hear about it. Its the same with this. There was already a guy with an AP1 that had it on for over a month before we knew about it. Probably the same with someone having it on an AP2.

 

At least a base SC passes smog. I would much rather go with a SC modded or un-modded.

 

good point. i forgot to mention this is for my track car, it won't pass smog at this point anyways

 

Then look into the BRP blower if its for the track. Much more usable torque.

 

I'd say either a BRP SC kit or stick with the turbo idea. Both ways will give you great torque and response.
