Greddy, Rev Hard intercooler kits

[bgsteve523]

OK I am going to upgrade sooner rather then later on the I/C now my question is does the I/C kits come with all the required piping to do the install, and is there a spot for the bov or do i need to get a piece welded on?????
Thank you,
Steve O

Both should come w/ all the piping you need but you may have to modify the piping of the revhard kit to work w/ your greddy turbo...greddy should be a simple bolt-on...dunno about the flange...im sure the revhard comes w/ the flange, dunno bout the greddy.

basicly i need to find out about the flange that's very important right now. I really want the greddy to go with the turbo but ill go with the best. Any more info is good
Thank you

The rev hard intercooler kit does come w/ a flange for the type s bov... no mods are required when installing it... as far as the greddy, dunno about the flange either... plus, the revhard is about $50 cheaper from showstoppers than the greddy...

No modifications required for the revhard IC kit. It also comes with a BOV flange welded already. Well, mine did.

Ok so i called greddy and found out that there I/C does not come with the flange welded on so I am 100% going with rev hard now. Where can i get one? How much? How hard is the install? And most Inportant is there a big difference with performance with the I/C over not having one?? How much of a dif? Is it like you can kind of feel it or is it like night and day?
Thank You,

1) Showstoppers call Chuck or Rocky(818-243-0954) and tell them I sent you for a discount;)

2)Were you ever good with legos? :p

3)Yes.

4)Night and day.

PS: I got pics of the install when you get your IC, I can send them to you for refrence.

[bgsteve523]

awesome i will call them.
I was awesome with lego's lol
so it is a big difference??
Yes please send the pics that would be great.
Thank you again

I talked to chuck at showstoppers and they have the revhard kit in but he says it comes with the vortech bov flange so i have to buy a vortech bov to make it work kind of sucks.

[bgsteve523]

I got the rev hard should be in very soon.
Does any one have pics or a walk thru to make this install easier??
I assume I need to send off my e-man now for the new program right?
Thanks guys,

OMG thats hilarious.
That makes me more confident in self-installing my turbo when the time comes:D
Legos kicked ass. Those were the only toys I owned

I have a few pics I can upload for you.
Yes, send in your emanage, maybe get hondata aswell;).

[bgsteve523]

well just talked to kenji and sent in my emanage to him I should have it back on friday. Found out that I am running the old program I didn't know there was more than one and he said adding an I/C will make a diff he guessed like 10whp is that true?? I hope not 10whp sounds really low but maby thats just me ep_nezay can you shed some light on this subject. Ohh and one last thing he had said that the new program is for anyone running an I/C or not so when you upgrade you don't have to send the emannage back to greddy. So confused all I know is that I drove in surfersi's car with the cn kit at 10lbs of boost and I want that kind of power he def has much more juice than I do. So I hope with the I/C and upping the boost I can be right there too. EP_nezay please let me know what you know about this.
Thanks,
Steve O

If it uses the Vortech Race BOV, it should fit. If it's the Vortech Mondo BOV, it probably won't. Check out this link:

Perhaps they were just trying to sell you another BOV.

[bgsteve523]

sorry for not updating I went without the vortech bov and found out the greddy type-s fits perfect so its all good now just have to solve my clutch prob.

[smilla0]

Ah, that's good to know! I guess they made it for the Vortech Race version. According to the website, that's the one meant for smaller engines such as imports. I think the Mondo is meant for larger V-8s.

I'm not trying to rip you off, but what are the prices on all of yours mods? I am planning on doing a similar setup with the GREDDY kit.
