What was the condition of the aps kit when it was installed, and who installed it?

The cost benefit of opting for a brand new kit at this point sounds way off....





Anyway...

Congrats Jay! Looking good! Glad to see that you got your turbo/power issues resolved and that you are happy!

Usually when someone goes big like this w/ turbos such as these..correct me if I'm wrong, but they're pushing for 600+
I didnt want 600 or 700.... Maybe in the future but not now!! How bout let me enjoy the car...

I say again, YOU HAD THE OLD APS TUNER WITH DIFFERENT TURBOS, Over!!


To Aarantes, I didnt get ur PM bro..

I do not believe you guys !

APS is much better then GREDDY.

who did the install for ur kit !?!? how did he installd the turbos for u???
im sure he installd the passenger side turbo in the driver side, this will cause Decrease in exhaust pressure and will cause low boost pressure and hot air gets in to the engine.

to bad u go GREDDY,u should stay APS

OMFG!!! Another misinformed ignorant post! Are you trying to compete with Lawchick in this thread?!?!?!?!??? Did you even bother to read the thread before you posted??? Forged did the install on both kits and I'm pretty confident that Sharif and his staff did a competent install.

It has been posted in this thread and Jay has posted in at least 3 other threads that he had the new APS tuner kit with the new non-Garrett journal bearing turbos that are ABSOLUTE CRAP and have been proven incapable of matching the performance of the previous Garrett ball bearing turbos used by APS.

Greddy turbos are superior to these new piece of sh*t journal bearing turbos that APS is now using.

The old APS is not the same as the NEW APS.....Different turbo's.

The 20G that Jay has is like night and day.

The new APS that jay had installed can hardly make 450whp.....while with the 20g he has installed not ....he could make over 600whp without starting the car.




BTW.... Lawchick..get your azz back over to the VRT/RA/Scott thread....I dont want the drama to spill over here and muck up Jays thread..We are noy finished with you yet.....You and your Gang started the BS and the all of you scatter and leave the XXX chick to hold the bag....get out of this thread and back where you belong

When the init thread was started I was not aware of the aps flavor you were running...I think this is where some of the confusion lies on a few posts actually.
I know what a relief it is to finally have you car back running strong esp after so long...congrats for sure. Car is def one of the cleanest. The FI forum in general has turned into shark infested feeding frenzy it seems like. - Its kinda funny really.

Awesome Jay, glad you are going to be back on the road and everything looks great.




on a side note.

It never ceases to amaze me how Lawchick is such the expert of FI.

Take this thread for example, where he procedes to tell Sharif and the rest of the FI world that there have been full TT kits for the HR out for awhile.

This looks like a nice kit. Hopefully all of the bugs have been worked out.

Jay'Z...glad you got the car running and making the power it should. Did
Sharif figure out what was causing the unusual vibration you had with both
the Supercharger and the APS "tuner" setup? Did it disappear with the with
the Turbo system or was something else discovered when installing new one?
