Greddy Upgrade (theoretically speaking)
The upgrade would be sweet if Greddy could pull this off, while keeping the ext wg down below the manifold. This would help us CA guys immensely!
As I already have an EMS, theoretically all I'd need is the bigger snail, wg, bigger injectors and a tune to break 300rwhp and still be carb legally badged.

I've seen revhard manifolds pop up in the for sale section for 150-200 bucks but new they're 350. Add in cost of a new turbo 1200 for a 30R, external wastegate for example a tial 44mm is 350, a little refab of the hot side intercooler pipe we'll say 100 and new downpipe another 100 for a custom from a muffler ship so what do we have;
1200 turbo
350 manifold
350 wastegate
200 piping
2100 not bad, what does the greddy kit cost ? 5,000 sell your turbo/manifold/downpipe for lets say a grand your looking at 1100.
All prices are just estimated

yeah, I just feel like my OEM cat is choking me up top, when it was warm out and I was catless for a day, Car felt really great, super quick spool, great sound, and I actually felt the car when it hit Vtec.............

Well, as you saw on my dyno, with a great tuner, and pulling a SHITLOAD of timing, you can tame the boost creeping, and actually use it to your advantage.
290. Would have hit 300 to 310 has I boosted to 10.xx psi. I don't really care about the peak hp numbers though. The important factor is that I gained 100ft/lbs of torque smack in the midrange....completely changes the car.
Joey balls mentioned something about a cut off at 13psi, can anyone provide more info on the subject, would this be a problem if you wanted to increase the boost with a 2-3mm HG. If so could this be changed. Thanks
