if it uses the 18g turbo look for it to run basically what itr41’s did, not off the bat but it will have the potential to do it.

george they use a smaller housing with the same wheels as my turbo on the RSX because the engine is mounted so the exhaust mani is by the fire wall…very very tight fit.

chad tell him to check around on club RSX. I know a lot of people run that kit on there. some I believe over 300whp. tell him don’t be disappointed with high 13’s with the basic kit. it will make power but traction will be tough and it is carb legal too

on stock internals on a type s I would go no higher than 8-9psi…the turbo itself is good for more.

the T517Z is greddys compact version of the 18G

as long as he doesn’t turn up the boost it will be fine. the Emanage they send you is pre programed very conservative
