can anyone hear please tell me what u think of the power and acceleration difference in the twin turbos. i mean stock to turbo. how much faster does the car feel? thanks

 

before------- woo hoooooo

after-------- holy sh********************T

 

I really do have a new car. My car's performance now matchs my car's looks. I always thought my car looked faster than it was stock Hope that makes sense.

 

so do u guys recommend aps tt or greddy tt???

 

aps TT

 

why the aps tt????

 

Kuz it's more complete.......but if you want to eventually bulid the bottom end and run a lot more boost I'd suggest the Greddy. I personally have the Greddy b/c it was 1. cheaper and 2. Runs less boost, which = less stress...Everyone is deffinately going to recommend the APS because it puts down more power stock than the greddy (but runs more boost) With the greddy you need at least a fuel pump and a BOV to run it decently safe.

 

Its more complete out of box...but you can build up a greddy to the same completion specs for about the same price.......i say APS because ihave rode in a APS TTz but no Greddy zs......

i dont think it matters...both of the kick *** both show great gains.........but i just like APS better.........

 

I'm watching the JWT...

 

Well i have a greddy from stock to now its a diffeence no doubt and i only have it on out of the box no tuning and no other mods which the turbo's are at 5 pounds.

Now both kits are great

If you want to put it on and forget about it go with APS if you want to build more power go with greddy.

 

+1......really no other way to describe.

 

The JWT TT was my weapon of Choice as you can see by my sig lines. I have not looked back since.

 

Perfect way to describe it. Fairlady don't you have a j&s safeguard as well? 2 things drive your car for a while and first get use to it (I read you other thread). Get aps tt kit it's complete out of the box. If your worried about to much boost you can have it tuned to the level the greddy is stock. But it's not necessary it is still very safe at 8.5 lbs.

 

Do you think the aps isn't cabable of building power? Why? My kit with 9.5 lbs of boost and a very conservetive tune 11.0 - 10.7 a/f = 440 rwhp. Everyone on the forums talks alot s**t about power until you drive and realise what it really is. I gained 35 -40 hp with the tune my car now is a tire shreading machine. I wonder how all these 500 + hp cars are daily driven? And in the wrong hands will kill someone.

 

Exactly my thought.

Here is a quote I found interesting

 

Hi i know that the APS can make power i have no doubt in that but i have seen both turbo's and the greddy is slightly bigger and has the option of later on upgrading the housing to a 20g which will create more power.

I have always thought the APS is a wonderful and very complete kit. I didnt get it becouse the fact that i was going to have to get a valve body so the tranny can take it. So it would have caused more money. And the fact that i was advised that later on it would make more power down the line.

Hey the APS has better turbo's becouse they are water cooled and arent they ballbearing. My original Plans was to get the SFR kit but too much money.

I have nothing against the APS or any kit out their but thtas what i have heard.

O captj what was that you added to your car now to make it to that much power

 

please explain what you think hp is? out of box on a stock compression motor, you can acheive upwards of 550 whp with a tune. with upgrading the actuators, full system and ems I don't see why another 100 -150 whp is out of the question (obviously on a built block with cams)


you said it! people have NOOOOO idea the reality of these power levels. if you are 400+ whp, you have a car that is borderline unsafe for the road IMO.

 

you do realize that the APS kit can be ran at 5-6 pounds of boost. Spring pressure is about 5 pounds or so. The tune just has out of box boost at about 8 pounds. You could have just not ran power to the boost solenoid and been at 5 pounds. Nothing on the APS kit warrants a valve body upgrade anymore than the greddy kit would.

on top of this, the APS would have been more complete out of box, has water cooling on top of the oil 'cooled' turbos are very good reasons to select the APS kit.

your're quote:
And the fact that i was advised that later on it would make more power down the line.
this point is null. APS has as much potential as you will need. You didn't want to spend money on a valve body, and you use the MAX hp potential as a reason to buy the greddy

I think the greddy is a fine kit, but those of us that actually buy a TT setup, there are maybe 1 out of 1000 of us that will be maxing out ANY kit. Be it the JWT, greddy, or APS.

You all want big HP. I think in terms of a drivable car, marluci7 is basically leading the pack:

 

OMG hilarious pix hahaha

 

I have driven both the TT and ST setups. Either one you go with will be well beyond what you expect.

That one thing is a given, regardless of what kit you choose.
