GReddy Turbo Kit Info

Finished up install on the Greddy Turbo kit the other day. Interesting stuff!!! The original set of instructions had some injector and ignition wiring reversed. Lost a day of work on that. Watch the intercooler piping install, if you don't check fitment you'll run into problems shifting. Altogether the kit is pretty tight performance wise, small issues. Not real happy with GReddy tho. Will post some pics and maybe a vid or two later. The kit coupled with the EVO II exhaust is really quiet.

I don't think he is saying there is anything wrong with the kit, more so the company itself.

Well for one greddy exhaust have been known for a deep quiet tone, also a turbo will quiet and exhaust and not make it louder unless u have and exahuast cut-out or and external wastegate. Greddy just sent new directions out i just got some for the kit i have sitting in my garage.

The kit itself is fine, has some small quirks but that's to be expected. When i talked to GReddy about the wiring issues they made it sound like a small issue. We spent a day in the shop troubleshooting and looking everything over a hundred times before they got back to me. All they said was my bad, type-o on the instructions. It was frustrating. All is good now!!!!

See thats the kinda krap that I f*cking hate about Greddy USA, they dont even care that they are going to inconvience about 1000 people*(rough estimate guys)!!! I'm thinkin Greddy USA is getting to big for its britches!
The money spent on that kit is a waste spend 1 grand more and get the Marvie Kit from AJP and pwn the f*ck out of SI's with Greedy USA kits! And the numbers are insane from AJP! Wicked is all I can say and now they have somethin' new!

The reason I say Greddy USA is because Trust/Greddy JP is a really good company in Japan, and I think its that they take much pride in the cars they build! Ovwer here its jsut about moving product! Who cares if its crap!

Yeah thats what I think! I'm done
