Hey Xset, if your into those gangsterish Bloods vs Crips type of movies you will like it. You should check it out. Another good one is:
"Boys in the Hood" back before Cuba Gooding Jr. was popular and Ice Cube.

DONT DO IT!!!!!
the greddy kit blows ***
http://www.speedforceracing.com/prod...x8turbokit.php
i know these kits are more expensive, BUT
GREDDY 3299+
Emanage sucks *****
the turbo is undersized and cant put out much
the intercooler is also undersized which leads to excessively hot intake temps which added on to a rotary's already god awful heat soak issues makes for a big no no
SFR KIT 5499-7499
this kit comes with everything you need to make 326rwhp PRETUNED EMS, Injectors, CAI, etc
Nice big intercooler
T4 turbo with mounting bracket as to not crack the header
greddy kit makes MAYBE 250rwhp
and people have had bad and good experiances on this board with the greddy kit, read around
the SFR kit that came out was tested for like 2 years before it was released to the public
but thats just my .02, some people think different, and thats cool, im not here to argue

Cubicle, Slip, DJ, and those that have done my survey,
Thanks guys! Every one helps a lot! I really do appreciate them. DJ, "Assault?" What? No "Battery?" LOL!
Everyone Else,
Please take a few minutes and help a bro-ham out? I could really use a large sample size...Thanks in advance.
Slip,
Don't forget my, personal, all time favorites--JUICE, New Jack City, and Do The Right Thing! LOL! TuPac with a "high-top Gumby" fade! That was after Digital Underground but before Suge-Knight! LOL! And the famous line by Radio Raheem, "20, M@therFu#ker! 20! I need 20 'D' batteries!"

and the shittest part of the whole kit, is the dinky turbo you get that runs with emanage at a meager 5.6psi and isnt capable of much more efficiantly, atleast to make more HP
but by all means, you can turn the boost up to 10 or even 12 and watch it turn into a molten pile of cast iron and then enter your engine block
but like i said, some people have had good experiances too
*cough*SFR*cough*

so after my friends mom's cat pissed in his computer and fucked it all up he bought 1200 worth of new parts and i built him a new one, he gave me all the old parts, which i promptly cleaned and inserted into my computer
AMD64 3500+(2.0ghz, overclocked to 2.21)
Gigabyte K8NS Ultra(socket 939)
and an extra 2gb of dual channel, which brings a total of 3GB PC3200
with the Radeon X1300XT i already had
500watt power supply
I have a pretty decent computer again
good for gaming and photochopping, and it cost me?
fuckle
im happy

wow, just wow zach.. interceptor x would be ok but yet its about the tuning, i would just want you to stay away from greddy and get other options. Thats my opinion for you.
#568
yeah. now as more and better kits come out the greddy kit seems less and less like the best option. plus the cost still isnt cheap. you have to figure in all kinds of things

What's up this Friday? Is anybody going to book the karting?
In a fun twist of fate, I might not have my RX-8 this Friday as I'm taking it in tomorrow to get the gear oil smell coming from the center console investigated.
