Greddy kits are very nice (complete kit that looks good) but 1/4 ets won't differ tremendously from stock. With the kit and upgraded clutch 14.5-15 for average drivers, 14-14.5 for good drivers. I base this all on other greddy turboed gsr's and si's and experience at the track.
Originally posted by Agent Boost hehe compression gasket, think again my friend. no matter how thick that mother is, nothign can save your precious cylinder walls from 12 psi without engine management.
Sorry but im trying to figure out the basics of all this. What exactly do you mean by "engine management" ??
I don't care what it comes with, running that boost on a stock motor with out a standalone plus top notch tuning will not be safe.
lolz funny how after F&F every one is talking EFI this and EFI that do you even know what youre talking about? with the gasket youre gonna have a cr of what? 9.0:1? running under 1 bar its not that big of a job that a afc couldnt handle theres no need to spend 1g or so on a EFI trust me .

True, but I've seen a Drag Gen 3 Integra LS go from 180hp at the wheels to 280 at the wheels just though larger injectors and proper Hondata tuning. While that head gasket may reduce the detonation your still stressing punny stock Honda rods (and yes they are punny because they were designed to be light which means they were designed to handle a specific amount of power and that's it). You are right, in thinking that your engine won't explode if you have a head gasket and an AFC. Your wrong if you think you're getting the maximum potential out of your setup.

As much as you would like to think so, F&F has nothing to do with my comment. Yes I know what I am talking about, what makes you think I don't? Yes an a/f controller could keep your shit from blowing up, but like the last dude said, you will not getmaxinmum performance and such without a standalone (such as hondata).

thats not what you said you said that theres no way to run that much boost with out a EFI , and thats not true as for geting the MAXIMUM performance out of your engine of course the more money you spend the more youre gonna get out of your engine
