I have done my research and read the greddy kit threads. My car is at the tuner and he's been on it for a couple hours. It's at 6psi and making 231 so far. The afr's are in the low 11's and high 10's. They are telling me that the manifold is really restrictive and they might be able to tune 10psi like I had wanted. Also, my vtec is at 7k right now. Just doesn't seem right.
Can some greddy owners chime in?
I have Aem 1052u instead of emanage. Thx.
update: I ended with 242 at 9psi. I've got a couple exhaust leaks i'm going to fix today. The car feels incredible and you'd only know the power is low on a dyno. It has exceptional drivability and idles like it did before the turbo. i'll post back up after i fix my exhaust and drive it around the block

Hey, this kit is very temperamental when it comes to where your VTEC engagement is set and the tuning right before, during and after Vtec. I made around 276RWHP on a Dyno Dynamics with the stock Boost and a test pipe I believe.
Here is my non-meth tune on a very low reading dyno (I also have a 2.2L so it makes a little more power then the AP1" this is 10PSI
Should went on a bigger turbo kit at the beginning Joe. GL on the retune, btw, pm me, Mase's coming down on March, 1, 2010 to tune my car, so you can tune your w/out towing to Tony T1. LMK
The bolt on the bottom of the wastegate wasn't tight at all. I tightened everything up, waiting on the snow storm to pass here now so i can test drive it. I'm going to get a 3in single exhaust and a touch up tune hopefully i'll make more power.

Unless you can boost by rpm and have an aem controll the boost don't get a 3" single with a TP if you live in a colder climate. Best exhaust for the kit is a 70mm and Asura or Berk HFC and that may creep on cold day. You sold be OK with a 70mm dual and HFC. Test pipe and open exhaust are going to be a bit of trouble for you. Good luck you have be warned.
stock cat is very restiritve IMO and would be better with out it, but the question is are u willing to port the wastegate or use the info revenge posted to get a couple extra hp
