I'm pretty much convinced the only reason the greddy kit gets **** is due to bad installs and injectors way too ******* small for a turbo. This is a great case in point. 250wtq must feel awesome dude!
ive always wondered why people insist on asking for videos of things like this. what good will it do anybody? all youll see is a car driving around aimlessly
i mean, i can understand if its a video of racing aorund a trakc or at the strip or something. but besides that... i just dont get the desire
hey lovecheese, Me no likey you no more. Where did you get your injectors from and what brand? I was going to order the 550cc RC Engineering, and get mine retuned next saturday.
Thought you were sellin the car?!?! Do I smell a part out???
I like videos too, I personally like to see the drive ability and performance end of the modification. Videos are a way to show off a product with out having to buy it and install it your self. I mean come on, haven't you ever heard of a video reviews?
yes, but how exactly are you going to judge the product by a video online? unless its professionally done. someone holding a camera sitting in the passenger seat of a car isnt going to help you 'really' feel what its like to drive it
im the one that made the videos that soxfan has of his turbo setup.. and let me tell you, the videos dont make you feel anything at all like the real thing.
I'm rocking the RDX's look on my profile their part number is on it. you'll need toyota/scion clips. ya the injectors are only about 35 bucks a pop and the clips are around 2 bucks each. Yes superior atomization. They are 410cc.
RDX Injector Info - onecamonly.com thats probally one of the best write-ups I have ever read. You don't have to mod the inj's or the manifold, only need to change the clips.
The RDX injectors are CRAP!!! Trust me. Everyone that uses them with this kit or even with the TSI kit has issues with fueling and making power. They are NOT better than the RC 440cc at all. Trust me guys. Stick with what works and with what people have proven what works.
sorry mike, but I'm going to have to trust the rocket scientists at honda on this one and not you, no offense...these are honda injectors designed for boost...if someone you know or you yourself didn't get them to work right it was bad programming. RC engineering is a great company, but there's a reason honda didn't recruit those guys coming out of college.
debating that too. I'd like to know by the end of the day if I should go 550 or 440. I wanna order them today so i can have my car re_tuned with them next saturday w/ bov install
Alrighty guys! First of all, Thank you for all the kind words! I am coming home in 12 days and I will post new pictures/videos of my car and link them to Fquick...
I bought RC Engineering Fuel Injectors and Clips to go with it. This is the only upgrade I have done from the orginal GReddy kit. My exhaust is a Skunk 2 70 MM, but I've been toying with the idea of getting rid of it and increasing to a 3" exhaust system.
I believe with in the next year, after I buy a good clutch, which I'm thinking stage 3 instead of stage 2 now, tires and what not, I'm going to be the guinea pig and get a mild port and some turbo cams.
I think 550s would be a safe route to go with this turbo kit, i mean this is a very conservitive kit. but with 550s at least you have a foundation to maximize this kits power. So in the future when a real tuning solution is created, we can all upgrade our turbos, tune with the 550s we have in, and make some insane numbers. I guess its always better to over build a setup now, then constantly upgrading partsl. i mean the kit comes with 370!!! my stock dsm was at 450, and this turbo is bigger!
Soxfan was saying the 550's have a crappy spray pattern and to stay away from them, but then again he doesn't like the rdx injs either.
cheese-you can run the coupe catbacks on a sedan if you get the extender pipe or have one made. its only a 3 inch difference. i think procivic sells one.
