Honestly bro I'm not trying to be a d!ck here but everything you have opened a thread for in that last two days has been covered countless times including this thread. You need to do a search and start reading instead of opening a thread for everything under the sun.

APS comes with additionally to the Greddy:
APS Unichip handles timing while emanage doesn't
APS is stock with 8-8.5 psi while Greddy is 5.5
APS comes with fuel pressure regulator and fuel return system (not full system)
It comes with Walbro fuel pump while Greddy doesn't

APS comes with a fuel pump, fuel return solution, BOV, and an oil pan and the greddy does not.

All these things can be bought for the greddy kit to make it just as complete as the APS. After all the parts are bought to make the greddy complete it will come out like a few hundred dollars less than the APS, although you will have a better fuel system than the APS kit.

give Sharif @ www.forgedinternals.com a call. he will tell you the difference between the two. He sells both the Greddy and APS and will sell you what best fits your needs instead of what will make him the most money.

It is to ask questions.. however if you as questions that have been answered in other posts, then all the kiddies will laugh at you.

Believe it or not.. I am helping you.

Fairlady_z33.

I wouldn't worry - every forum you subscribe to, you start off being a newbie and asking questions which have been asked many times before - buddy don't hide behind the 'out of date' philosophy; we've all been there.

Regular contributors will always stick it to you and suggest you use the 'Search' button or whatever.

But those guys are also the guys with all the experience and 'know-how' to improve your car and probably (usually) are just buggin you.

In time, you'll be doing the same thing

I honestly dont think you will be happy with the APS or Greddy kit...strictly out of the box. The biggest difference between the APS kit and the Greddy kit "out of the box", is that the APS kit is complete, and the Greddy kit is missing a few key items. Now, the Greddy kit is much cheaper than APS, so if you add in the missing elements to the Greddy kit, you end up at nearly the same price for both kits.

If you want to set-it-and-forget-it...the APS is the one for you, but be prepared for only 360-370whp out of the box...even with test pipes and free flowing exhuast. I guess my main point, is that none of the FI kits currently on the market are perfect out of the box. They all need tuning for maximum performance, and some of them need a few key items, such as a timing harness, return fuel system, in the case of the Greddy kit.

NP. the diodes are standard 100V diodes from radio shack....I believe the part numer is 5500, but dont quote me on that. They are wired up to the output wires of the 6 ignition wires...very simple. Signal should travel through the output wires, through the diodes, and out to the coils.
PM me if you have additional questions.

Now back on topic.
