Thanks for the info chris
there is no difference in the turbos used, they are the same. you can drive around on the basemap, but it should be tuned asap.

If you want to be super safe you could always pull the fuel pump fuse and crank the engine a couple of times to build up oil pressure before firing her up

anyone having idle problems with their greddy kit? sometimes my idle bounces up and down(to the point where the car is about to stall, car is shaking) even after it is warmed up but it does not happen all the time. sometimes the idle drops so low that the car just dies out.

ok i have 2 questions, i just had my greddy kit done, and when starting, it acts as if it is being starved for fuel, it takes about 10sec of the starter rotating before it will go, and when it does finaly start for about 30sec the wideband will read that it is way lean, then it will even out, is it a tune issue, or what? also i bought the reccommended NGK iridium 9's but they were pre-gapped at .025, is this right? i thought it should be at .039-.043 but a asked a local speed shop and they said "thats right, and your stock plugs will be a very bad choice for that turbo" any help would be great thanks

9-range plugs are 2 steps colder... You need ONE step colder. So a 8-range would be needed.

I Have no idea if that is also the cause of your problem..

2: i'm looking into the Berk 3" headerback but i DON't want anything invidia LOUD.. i've headed some N/A soundclips of this baby and its earbleading
2: will a 60mm testpipe/ stock exhaust hurt performance much? what should i be expecting? Im going to PORT the wastegate a lil bigger also!

I have this kit and the invidia... my car can be as quiet as a mouse while cruising, or go ape shiz and have a really nice sound. I'll see if I can get some good vids while I'm at the track tomorrow.

yup same here. It's kind of suprising how quietthe car can be while just daily driving around town. My buddy has the same invida running no turbo and its way to loud
