Greddy Turbo Questions
 
Hey guys,
I'm thinking about putting a turbo next year. I've checked the Greddy's turbo kit and it looks like a lot of the stuff like intake, manifold etc has been included in the kit. I'm wondering what kind of engine/power/pipes related mods I can do before installing the kit. Currently I have only installed the HKS Legamax Premium catback with mid-pipe.
P.S. will my exhaust affect the power gain from the turbo?

It's a full bolt on kit, so it will come with everything to install it on to your car.

Exhaust will definitely help a turbo car breathe, but it's not 100% necessary

In terms of other basic related mods, there really aren't any besides exhaust.Down the road, you may want to consider stuff like fuel upgrades etc, but I would worry about getting the kid installed and tuned first.

ps: Search this section of the forums, there's plenty of info on the Greddy kit and many others :)

You can purchase overpipe front pipe and catback to really open up this setup and have it ready before hand. I ran a 2.5 / 2.75" setup before and then switch to 2.5" overpipe to 3" all the way back from that and picked up some gains. If you can find a 3" overpipe that mates tapers and mates to stock header it will work just fine when you have the greddy kit installed.

A couple of gauges also are nice to have. Boost and AFRs at a minimum. I prefer a good multi gauge and a wideband.

Are there any 3" overpipes that have a 2.5" flange at the header side and 3" outlet at the front pipe side ?
