did a search... no one has used a Greddy upgrade kit for their TII?

did a search for "Greddy" and only a handful of posts came up which were all for their FMIC... anyone have details about their Turbo kit? (like performance numbers?) All the sites including greddy themselves only mention that its a power increase and thats its smooth but nowhere says by how much?....

thanks...

buy a garrett from these people http://www.speedshopthagard.com/ they have the best prices on the web and just get a exhaust manifold made with a t4 or t3 flange on the end and you can get the flange that goes to the motor from racing beat

good luck

I was going to get the GT35/40R but I decided to go with a Precision Turbo. They have proved to put down some serious numbers on stock ports by a member of this forum.

i was also looking to get the gt3540r, were can i get some info on the precision turbo? i was also looking into the super 7 on the website above which is a full t4, but is not ball bearing, the gt-r turbos get to full boost 800 rpms faster that the non ball bearing, decisions decisions

You mean the Greddy TD06 20G kit for the FC? I have that + the FMIC
haven't been to dyno yet, but last owner had a dyno result and it was

351rwhp at 7500rpm
.9bars (13.05psi) of boost

he doesn't have the torque results (its in japanese, i can't read it)

for street wise, the turbo is good, but spools a little slowly
u feel it at 3500-4000 but it is like an american muscle at 5000-6000
i've read in lots of posts that it is cheaper to get a turbo and find other pipes and IC instead of buying the Greddy Kit.... but (since i got it with the car, i'm not complaining) i say this setup that i got is not bad at all =)

so you get full boost at 3500? thats not that bad in the lag category... thats one thing im looking for in a kit is low lag time (ill take that over a coulpe ponies up top),... do you get spiking issues? and what type of engine management are you runnin? your numbers sound perfect for what im looking for...

no no!! i don't get full boost at 3500.....

it begins to kick in, feel the power at 3500 about .3 bars about 4psi
its a little weird can't explain it....

the turbo is running with Blitz DSBC controller
engine management.... its the stock ECU (i think reprogrammed)
well, i'm looking into that right now (cuz all these numbers are from my last owner)
i have 2 extra 720cc injectors running, using a Greddy Rebic IV controller for that....

at the kill section, i posted at at 5th gear, i was going about 4000 or so rpm, about .9bars(13.05psi) but then the next race i went down to 4th, about 5000rpm the boost was 1.3bars (~19psi) so i would say the FULL boost is around 5000-6000

my friends suggested AEM EMS, but eeeh... none for FC... so i am still looking into upgrading that....

well, the car is quite good =) actually save me gas mileage (18-19mpg, 60% freeway) i can actually go everywhere i need without boosting up above 0 =D so if i want to save gas that way, i can..... but whats the fun of that?

The TD06 20G is a fairly large turbo and at only 13psi I dont think you are really reaching the "sweet spot" of it yet. I have a Gredy kit also ,the TD07 25A. I am planning on running 16psi, and making close to 400 RWHP. That turbo you have on your hands should be good for ~450 RWHP, but you need more boost. Are you running that on the stock ECU still also? If so, ditch that POS

Im far from knowing a ton about aftermarket ECUs, but you cant really go wrong with a Haltech IMO. It all depends on who is doing the tuning for you, and what they are comfortable with.

The GReddy TD-06SH turbo kit is good for 400hp.
It might do a little bit more if you push the boost up and run race gas.

The Mitsubishi turbos are not as efficient versus some of the Garrett stuff, so don't expect much performance under 10psi.

how big is the TD06? compared to say one of the Garret Series turbo's? just so i can get an idea...

I did a more envolved search and many people say the Greddy TD06 kit is way over priced at 2500? (maybe cuz it lacks software to go with it?) i think thats an alright price to get to the 350 HP range... looking at other cars (like VW's/honda's) and their "stage 3" kits to get to 300-400hp its about the same price most likely more...

2600 bucks is way to much money. You can piece together yourself and full t04 kit for 16-1800 all day long. And thats paying $1200 for the turbo

Exactly. I came across a very good deal on my Greddy kit, which is the only reason I bought it. Granted, it is a very nice setup, and I really like the fully divided SS tubular manifold, but a kit could be pieced together for less that these are new, if you know what you are looking for.

well if you wanna spendthe money on the gt-r series you should go with a gt3540-r, which will get you like 400 rwhp, if you dont want spend the money you can get the the to4s 60-1, which is cheaper but not ball bearing

well im looking more for spoolin than raw HP... ill take a hit on top HP for less lag (to an extent) the aim is for 325-350rwhp or in that ball park... and then from their as little lag as possible... so if i went Garret id be looking at ball bearing i think...
