Greddy Turbo Kit for D15
- Thread starter bucdenny

do you have a common intake manifold? like with the throttle body facing the passenger side of the car, or is your facing up towards the hood? im not sure which the dx motor is. but if you throttle body is facing up, youll need to switch to a y8 intake mani, and maybe head...im not sure.
greddy sucks...you will be disappointed if it does fit...IMO
and whys that, becuase it doesnt have a hideously oversized turbo that only spools in the last 2000 rpm so the manufacturer can claim higher peak hp numbers... gimme a break.Originally posted by silverb18c1

You should only need an intake manifold... Go here and ask the question they'll let you know exactly what you need. www.turbod16.com
The whole forum is about turboing a d series engine.

That is an odd opinion and I have to agree with handlebarsfsr about competitors component selection.not many street cars can run around @30psi without custom made head gaskets/o-ringing...etc.... and no D-series is gonna handle that kinda' pressure.
IMO the GReddy is a good setup that maintains day to day drivability (at a not so reasonable price but you get what you pay for)

I agree, greddy is a good kit if you're only gonna run a low amount of psi. And any turbo kit is only as good as the maintenance you put into it. It's not something you can install on your car and forget about.Originally posted by Beelzebubba

Hell yeah.. Last time i checked IMO didn't really mean anything 'cept my own opinion. to run 6-8lbs of boost is weak. My b18c1 spanks stock turbo like its cool. I think if you gonna do a turbo do it right. build the internals and at least get 12lbs of boost to shut people up like myself. Make it work for you. Alot of people misconcieve getting a turbo that your gonna be fast right out of the box. I guess you get what you pay for... oh yeah stop getting bent out of shape because of a commit i made..SeanMc300 i say make your own kit, piece it together, itll be SO much cheaper than the greddy and get as much or more power. im half way done and i only spent 250 bucks!
hey if you could pm me and tell me more about your kit and what you have and need. i didnt know it was that cheap!!Originally posted by SeanMc300

It's not that cheap.
I am sure that is all quality stuff for $250!

go there for a homemade kit, second of all you can run 12psi on a stock GSR block using a greddy kit

Where are you getting this kind of deal? This stuff is all used?Originally posted by SeanMc300
ive seen it all in person, turbo is in fine condition, the bov...well it works, the manifold is fine and the dp is fine....plus i know the kid selling it, i talked him down to 250. but go ahead say what you want...
I'm not getting "bent out of shape". I just think the GReddy is a well engineered kit and if this guy is getting all the components for $800.00, it's worth it. The thing that scares me about a junkyard turbo is fuel management. I have witnessed firsthand what happens to an engine with a large (estimated +12 psi...the boost gauge was nailed to the far side) amount of boost and no fuel management upgrades...in a word, "BOOM!!!!".
