why not go custom? choose the parts you want and save money. you just gotta find out how to put them together which is the sucky part unless you know how

FOr the DOHC kits, they cost about the same...the IC kit that's needed for the greddy kit will be around 1000 bucks(don't quote me on that price). The drag or Revhard kits come with everything for serious and mild boosting.

THe f-max is a good system, but I would rather have a RRR than the mf2 setup....plus their downpipes are like toothpicks.

Do you have a link do a dyno-sheet for the f-max system?

I think I've made my decision. I'm going to go with the Rev Hard Stage II kit w/ IC. Thanks for your opinions.

Are these all Street Legal with the proper paperwork to back them up when you get pulled over by a cop?

Yes they do come with everything that you need to prove that they are street legal. If they don't then you can request it from Greddy.

I know greddy has the 50 state legal EMISSION excempt sticker when you buy it but i was wondering about dRAg, f-max, and the rev hard kits... i've asked others about it and they don't know.

i think greddy will be pushing their standard boost (6 or 8 psi) and you just need to get the large intercooler to get up 260+HP At the wheels which is not bad at all.

one cool advantage of getting greddy kit is that it comes with some neat standard parts like the fuel management system that's not included in other kits... what sux is that you don't get the intercooler.

The standard boost for the 15G is 5psi, but can easily be raised to a safe 8-9psi (same as the FMAX stock). I'm running 8psi right now WITHOUT the intercooler or the "black box" supplied with my kit. Due to the fact I have a 99 Civic EX, the kit for the 92-95 didn't match up on the electronic FMU, so I bought the Vortech 8:1 FMU and it works great. Never ran lean once with 5psi and haven't with 8 (stock injectors, regulator, and fuel pump).
The biggest difference between all these kits is the size of the turbo itself. The 15G is smaller than the FMAX or Rev Hard, but spools up considerably faster. The downside is that you lose the chance to produce unreal boost at higher RPM's, whereas the FMAX and Rev Hard prosper at high RPM's.
But, then again, you have to prep your engine for that kind of stress. I'm not going to be drag racing my car, so I went with the Greddy kit and saved mass amounts of cash.
If you compare the normal asking price for the 15G (around $1500) to the FMAX ($3500 w/intercooler), you could buy the 15G, an exhaust kit, an intercooler, and electronic FMU and have it installed, gauges and pod, BOV, and have enough left over to put some stereo stuff in your ride. How about that?
But ifyou want mass boost, go with the FMAX (most complete kit).
