Once the greddy TT is installed and your car is tuned properly, do you really need to worry about it anymore... if you are staying conservative (450rwhp)?

 

Good points, thanks. I will have to really think about that since I'm some what of a rookie to FI.

 

Yeah, either that or find a trustworthy shop, becuase you could be in for a world of hurt in the hands of an unscrupulous one.

WOW I guess things have changed when now 450 RWHP is considered conservative I remember when people were saying 400 was the limit.

The Greddy kit as it is even if it tuned is only good for less than 350 RWHP to go to 450 RWHP you need to address timing, and fuel system (pump & return system) and after tuning then you should be fine just keep an eye on the AF.

 

If APS is plug and play, then how do you go about uping the PSI and keeping the kit a plug and play?

Conservative for forged internals??

 

Ah I forgot you are the one getting the engine built by someone that has never done one and getting it tuned by someone without a dyno.

Yes 450 would be ultra conservative for forged internals, why bother.

 

Well... I just wanted to do it right. I have never had a F/I car, but I do have an addictive personality so I figured I would want more hp in the future. I just don't want to go through everthing Gman is going through. This stuff is really expensive and I want it to last awhile!

 

+1

 

one thing i thought that was weird with the greddy kit is that it doesn't come with a bov. for a manufacturer that makes bov's , i would think they would have included one. thats about the only b itch i have. considering they were about the first on the market with a tt kit for the vq35, i would say they did pretty good. most everyone on the forums atleast pushing big power is doing with a greddy kit. i got mine minus the injectors and the e-blue, knowing i was looking for big power and was not going to use those pieces. much over 400rwhp and i feel a return fuel system should be a main concern. even though there is an acceleration map in the eu to possibly help ride over the drop in fuel pressure you would see on the stock fuel system when stepping into the throttle.
the main thing is to do your homework and make sure it is getting done correctly and tuned correctly. 450rwhp is tough to have on any f/i kit and think you can beat on it with stock internals and think it will last a long time, in my opinion.
