Question Greddy Single Turbo Kit Question

I'm thinking of getting the Greddy turbo kit for the FD. I'm going with Greddy b/c in the past I worked at a race shop and from experience their parts always fit very nicely.

My car is bone stock except for a DP. I want to make the switch to single turbo b/c i want to increase reliability not necessarily power. (twins have too many vacuum hoses everywhere!)I just want it clean and simple.

Which Greddy kit should i go with:

TDO6SH-20G or the T78 kit? or something else?

I don't want to do anything else to the car (e.g. FMIC or upgraded ECU, etc...)


Insights from the experienced FD owners are greatly appreciated.

If you want to go with a single turbo and be more reliable you will have to upgrade everything else along with it. Including: ecu, IC, rad, MP, exhaust, injectors, fuel pump, fpr, boost controller, AST.....You should try a search under reliability mods I am sure you will find alot of info. Good luck.

Like black93 said, if you go single you will have to upgrade everything else. I've never heard of someone going single on a stock ECU, but I could be wrong. As for the IC, you don't have to go with a FMIC but you will have to upgrade. Do a search on "reliability mods" theres tons of info. Theres also a "single turbo" section here on the forum.....Goodluck

You can eliminate most of the vac lines if you switch the twins to non sequential. I don't think you have to upgrade anything as long as you stay at stock boost. I personally hate non-seq but it would get you what you are after
