Little taste of the Greddy kit
judge: I am moving my shop over the holdays and will no longer be in Aurora, I will be in West Chicago ILL, about 5 miles north of where I am now. The new address and everything will be posted when I am completed with the move.
As for the setup to do engine upgrades... those are all I do. Most cars that come here get fully built engines and turbo systems. My new shop has a climate controled clean room just for building engines in. Around mid January I will be open to the public... however after I am somewhat settled in I would be glad to have anyone come over and see the shop, or the Z... however, the Z will not leave the shop unless the ground is dry and the salt is clear.... if thats the case I dont mind rides ever now and then.

(voice of Mr. Byrns) E x c e l l e n t.
That's great to hear. My engine upgrade will be a ways off though. Maybe in the spring time I will stop by and look at the Z. See if I can't get the fever.

as for a little update:
the entire system showed up a couple days ago.
the car is all apart, and it COULD be running with the twin turbos already. However I have delayed it.
I am currently building a support kit for the Greddy TT system to replace the things about it that we dont like here. Basically just a little kit that takes the next step on the small parts that Greddy keeps more economical.
Also... my manifolds, turbine housings, and downpipe adapters are out being ceramic coated. i am also considering having all the piping polished right now while its all out.
Hopefully I can have it all done by the end of this week so I can drive the car to the new shop rather then towing it.
We are also considering when we want to pull the motor for some pistons, rods and cams. i dont want to destroy this block if a rod decides to let go...

Love the dog! Animal lover here.
I have now put a big question mark next to GReddy on my FI list based on yours and Swinke's details of their instructions and some other stuff I heard, so keep us updated please we all love new toys! As for fitting all kits are gonna have fitment issues we are adding 50 % rwhp in a 2 seater lol!
It comes with a 7th injector and E-Manage right? Sorry I haven't been following this kit much. I think we need to have a list of every kit that uses the 7th injector and every kit that uses larger injectors, (Victor??) and what they use for tuning. Then we can all compare nicely when they are all installed and running awhile and the bugs are worked out. Have fun!

Well... The Greddy E-Manage is still a very capable system, I just do not PLAN on using it for our HP goals. I will play with it, but I have a feeling we will be moving on within a couple weeks.
The Greddy kit does not come with an additional injectors, instead it replaces all the stock ones with larger.
