First off, this guy is way chill. He talked to me for a long ass time about the concerns i had with the kit and talked to me about certain things i should get in order to be a daily driver. I got some answers about CARB and stuff too.

Carb will be done by June he thinks.

The exhaust kit that they are going ot put out that goes with this kit will also be out then too.

For those that are asking about passing smog, Kenji said it shouldnt be a problem.

Engine life... he said as long as you are cruising and want power every once and awhile the engine will last just about as long as an N/A one. (@9 psi which he said it max for this kit with stock internals and what not)


He said more but i cant remember it...lol

I talked to Mike at the show and he said the CARB legal stuff could be done anytime, but it usually takes 6 months to a year and he said they started in December. Hopefully it will be done by June. They totally convinced me on getting the kit because it sounds like they have all the problems fixed. I even looked over their Turbo Civic Si and it looked really awesome. I have been hearing about problems with the reflash and Mike told me that as long as it is installed correctly then it will run.....unlike some people have been saying. I also saw a RSX with the kit and the reflash and it looked great. The guy that installed it said it has been running great and throwing no cels.

well he told me that if i had any problems that i could call him or jus swing by and hell take a look. So i dont know why hes not on the board anymore. Try emailing greddy and ask them to do it more. Remember that Greddy makes more than just an RSX turbo kit...they gots shit to do. If youre car is having serious enough problems im sure that you can get a hold of him.

i have no problems getting ahold of Kenji whenever i need to talk to him. You have to call him at the Greddy number(1800.473.3392) or email him ([email protected]). He will help you if you are in need, he came to me and helped me with everything i needed and still helps when needed and we still communicate from time to time.

i was being saracastic. i talk to him every now and then but they do get busy ever there. the guys out in cali have the luxury of just swinging by there, some of us don't.

naban:you're right kenji is cool as hell and provides more than enough help to peeps that have problems. i sure that the people going with custom kits that are using e-manage/profec are going to have an ass load of question when it get's down to install time.

team: did u get the seats from john or did u go somewhere else?
