- Wed May 23, 2012 1:02 am #305831 Found a guy selling a greddy kit that comes with everything including ecu and injectors, I was wondering would it be okay to throw that same setup into my z6 without a tune? It came off the same engine.

- Wed May 23, 2012 1:36 am #305836 Depends if the turbo is in good shape and if the manifolds in good shape and I would still get a tune it probably comes with a base map

- Wed May 23, 2012 3:58 am #305865 it comes with the ecu set at 10psi, sounds like it's fully setup plug and play

600whp Turbo 84mm LS/Vtec Drag Hatch

- Wed May 23, 2012 6:32 pm #305942 put the kit on and get it tuned.
i bought a used greddy kit and had to rebuild the turbo.
its worked out pretty well.

z6 turbo power FTW tuned on crome

- Wed May 23, 2012 7:25 pm #305950 You can always send Greddy Turbos out to Forced Preforance. and they can rebuild then and up grade then a little bit.

IDK if anyone has heard of it, they are big in the Evo/DSM/Subi community might do honda work, but they build turbos such as FP Green, FB Black good stuff when you dont wanna spend a arm and a leg.

- Thu May 24, 2012 6:59 am #306037 Yeah I was thinking I'd probably need a proper tune, I just don't want to pay for a tune yet, it's so costly, and the guy had it on his d16z6 too

Running a car with a turbo with out a tune = very risky! I do not recomend! It could turn out to be pretty bad!

I just don't want to pay for a tune yet, it's so costly,

you know what's even more costly?
blowing up motors

if its too much for a tune, maybe you shouldn't bother with the turbo.

But really Throwing a turbo and bigger injectors on is just asking for trouble with no tune.

Yeah I think I might hold off on turbo, or maybe even just not go boost, in fact I think it's cheaper to go b18. I don't need a lot of horsepower, just good enough to go up a hill. Around my area d16z6s are 600-800 so replacing one isn't much of a problem if anything does go wrong. But I understand how important it is to tune, I was just really curious about how reliable it is to use someone else's tune on the same motor with the same set up.

- Fri May 25, 2012 11:40 am #306192 The GSr motor (b18c1) is the best engine to boost haha

- Thu Dec 13, 2012 11:51 pm #322195 how about moates ostrich or deamon on a b20b 10 12 psi with a 15g

- Fri Dec 14, 2012 9:02 pm #322248

how about moates ostrich or deamon

those are tuning tools to connect a laptop to the ecu, you still need a bin, and you should have a wideband for monitoring.
and a fundamental understanding for using them.
