GReddy Turbo for a LS?
Does anyone actually have the TD05H-18G turbo for a Integra LS? If so.. can someone tell me around how much of a gain you attained when you put it on? Im thinking about getting it but im not sure if I want it yet. Thanks

:blah: "The GReddy is overrated."
Yeah we all know it makes less power than the Drag and Revhard kits. But it's completely CARB legal. To some people that's important; seeing how this guy is in California maybe he wants to go faster than stock while not getting hassled by the cops.
Anyway the GReddy kit will give you about a 30-40 hp boost with a wider powerband than a GSR. Not huge numbers but it'll definitely be a noticeable improvement. If that's all you're looking for and the fact that the GReddy kit is really high quality stuff, will bolt on, and is CARB legal are positive factors, then go for it.

I wish the Greddy Turbo setup would cost 500-600 (like the EVO exhaust). That would be sweet.
Hey FatBooty, was that 30-40 additional HP to the wheels?
And thats without the intercooler nor blow-off correct?

You won't find a higher quality kit than greddy. Everything you need is included, down to the last fitting....and it's CARB legal, so you don't have to sweat the cops in CA. Sure it might not make the peak power of a kit with a larger turbo, but it spools faster. Get the IC and take the boost past 5.5 lbs, and you'll get much more than 30-40 hp.

one of westcoaststyles friends has a greddy kit with the ic and bov on a civic with stock internals. he is running high 13's with 17's. its a vtec model engine if you were running. so i guess you can expect 13's with ic and bov. if you dont then i would expect no lower then 14.5 which is very respectable. they are worth the money in everyway and if you speak with westcoaststyle i can bet you can save you a little bit. slip him a pm and tell him that steven sent you.
