Default So where the hell are all the turbos ?

And the non-ATI prochargers ?

We had like 20 people who were getting the Greddy, and I see maybe one or two that had actually installed, with no dynos or any kinda performance measurements.

It's the middle of January, how many years before we actually have some decent choices ? =\

Give everyone a chance, it was just released. There will be a few that get it right away and more that wait to see how the first batch goes. It just depends on the persons personailty and level of risk they feel comfortable with.

Aaaahhhh, they probably got the kit, and then went to their installer to get it put on........ And decided to wait a few weeks, lol.

I'm expecting my Greddy TT install to be completed and dynoed shortly. Install is taking longer than expected because Greddy forgot to provide all of the necessary parts with the kit. I'm also getting Cusco sways, Eibach springs, gauges, and the e-01 boost controller installed while its in for the work.

Although I'm very excited to get my Z back, I was never worried how long the car was in the shop because of the weather here in Michigan. The Z will just go from the shop to my garage until the weather breaks. Anyway, as soon as I have the #'s, either myself or Guru will post them. Will likely have a dyno at the preset psi and one at a higher psi after Guru has tuned the Z to perfection.

Yancy, we had to modify one of the downpipes as it doesn't line up with the wastegate very well. I also have to have Greddy send the one last IC pipe (that they forgot to give us). Apart from that it's pretty much done. I should have it off the lift tomorrow and just waiting for the last IC pipe.

I am looking at another week at least. Install did not start until 1/2/04, but e-manage is gone, and going with a different solution. This is adding time to install. As soon as it's done and tuned I will post dyno's.

If you think it seems like it is taking a long time to get Greddy numbers, imagine being one of the owners!

I even put mine on pre-order from redlinepower.com for the price he gave me...but he told me he had two kits with one missing the e-manage and one that had two left manifolds... I still have yet to hear when a complete kit will be ready... guess I have to wait until then... I originally put my card on file on 12/26 or the 27th....just waiting..... one day. (by the way, who is putting these packages together and shipping the wrong parts? I mean come on... I read about a few people missing things....is Greddy kidding?)
