I didn't think the GTX was worth it for my application, especially at lower boost levels. When I eventually build my block I might go for the upgrade, but wasn't worth it at the time.

If I go supercharger down the road I was considering the JRSC since it seems like it builds power similar to a turbo, yet is linear in the upper RPMs where you do your performance driving. Did you get to drive a JRSC car before you made the choice to go with the Edelbrock?

The JSRC isn't bad. I didnt like how much like stock it felt down low and then all the power is above 5k. Especially at the time. This was my daily for about a year and I didnt want something where the only time I noticed a difference was above the 5k mark which I wasn't going to hit often on day to day driving. For now I do mostly back roads driving with the car. While I realize the SC would be better suited for that then the turbo, the turbo would also make my freeway trips a bit more fun since this is strictly a weekend car at this point. I also own a Ford Focus ST (turbo) and I realize I just really like that type of feel in the car.

Does the V3 FMIC bolt straight on to the V2 kit or do i have to edit the charge pipes?
Got most of the parts for the block and the head just waiting for some supporting parts, now im stuck at gtx28 or gtx30 |

Yes it does. The inlet and outlet are in the same position.

Might just go with the V2 kit then get the V3 FMIC if needed since the price difference is the same
@Kris86 Damn! Glad to see your tune is all sorted out |

Anybody running the 3" JDL OP/FP combo with the JDL turbo kit? any clearance issue with the 3" OP, is it hitting the sway bar/ cross member or something. I remember before they had issues with 3" OP, i dont know if it has been resolved.

Im not running JDLs OP/FP combo per se, however I am running a custom one off JDL titanium 3" over pipe and it was definitely difficult to wiggle it in their but there is no actual issue with fitment. Ive had it for about 8k miles with no leaks or issues.

I am a noob and have two quick easy questions, so take pity on me. I am going to order my JDL kit before the end of the month and I am looking to upgrade my exhaust this weekend. First question is should i go with a 2.5" or 3" exhaust (Invidia *R400 Gemini) if I plan on staying under 400hp. My second question: is anyone running the Garret G25-550 turbo?

Another JDL kit gets installed!!!!!
I just wanted to come on here and share my opinion on the kit, excellent fitment and quality. Got the FMIC version with the JDL crash bar and JDL oil cooler, everything bolted on perfectly and the car got tuned by James at HRI and it drives like a DREAM. Running 10 PSI and this shit feels like a ferrari I was never boosted before so having a boosted car for the first time is pretty exciting |
