I didn't even know that the Power Enterprise kit was ready .... but it's on eBay! I hope it's legit!

Anyone have dynos or info on a successful G install?

here is the link:

Pics look legit, but those might/might not belong to the person posting the auction. I've seen several fake pics on ebay before.

does PE kit even fit the G yet?

 

The PE kit does NOT fit the G yet - coupe or sedan. That's why my G is gonna be the first G with the PE - where they are going to redesign the piping to make it fit. Then, the prtotoype pipes are gonna go back to Japan for mass production for our G's.

nice sh*t...how long do you think? the PE kit is more appealing then GReddy...but that SSR with its twin intercooler looks pretty sweet

 

yep... PE is the best - ask anyone with a lot of experience in JDM parts - short of TopSecret, which is almost always prohibitively expensive (liek their $3700 headers for the Z).

It was supposed to be done before the new year, but the Kit is backordered til February. So, expect nothing until the end of February for my car, and no earlier than March-April (i suppose) for production units.

But seeing the sweet design/warranty offering of the Dreamworks SC, I am just go for that. Of course, nothign is as good as TT, but you can't get everything.

how well is a TT on an automatic anyways? Will the output be the full potential?

 

That's what I'm wondering... I guess we will know how long it lasts when Gurgen's tranny dies out =/ J

J/K!.. We will have to wait and see.

 

ATs are fine and turbo performance in an AT car is great, particularly on the street. They get a bad rap from misinformed people still living on the paradigm that manual transmissions are more "pure" or some other nonsequitur reasoning. Manual transmissions provide more control and better link the driver and car, but there are plenty of very fast and very fun AT cars out there. My G is manual and I love it, but I've had plenty of AT cars, and my fastest and most modded car ever was an AT.

Gurgen, I thought you were goin' with the Greddy TT setup? Do I read it right that you are going SC now, or the PE TT? I can't really figure it out from your post. I always preferred SC'd cars to turbos, again, particularly for the street. Well behaved, no spin up delay, and more refined.

damn gurgen ure cars gonna be EVEN faster. i am sooo jealous! o well get the shyt installed so we can get our tt's!!

 

But wait...after they fit it on your car there taking it off to mass produce it? what a tease! you get the TT kit, then it goes away =(

 

the output is supposed to be about 15-20 hp less due to the loss in the T/C. But I DO have an upgraded TC, so my losses will probabbly be negligible.

hey Gurgenpb what is it about you tranny that will make it not loose as much as a non moded tranny. is it your valve body thingy or your torque converter? just wondering so when i go with a TT i will know what i have to upgrade in the tranny. thanks

carlos, it's in my sig - it's the torque converter.

Shader7 is right - the ATs do not have "driveline shock" as the MT's do - the impact is momentarily softened by the TC, thus much lower chance of broken gears, etc. I never had plans for the Greddy TT - I think they are inferior in many ways to the PE kit, which is what i was eyeing. I am not sure why the SCs are more refined. I aws always under the impression that TTs are much easier on teh engine than SCs, as the engine is boosted only when the turbos spool up, and not always as is the case with the SCs. Then again, I am toying with the idea of the Dreamworks SC - I love the design and the 3 year/36K mile warranty is certainly a good selling point.

As far as refittitng the piping on the G with the PE kit, I misspoke. When they design the piping, they are going to make 2 of each. So NO, they will not be taking it off and sending it off to Japan - they will send off the second set that they build.

Not sure what to do.

I am now soliciting of you guys, especially the knowledgeable/experienced guys (Shader7, jcv, DaveO, Eagle1, et al) your opinions on the which should I go with - PE TT or the Dreamworks SC? Both will come with an ECu upgrade, and I will also be installing A/F and EGT gauges to monitor the engine for ultimate safety...

i am not all that knowlegible about F/I but i know a little and if i was in ur posistion i would deffently go with the TT kit. I have a feeling that the Dream Works Kit is going to be come very popular while this is a good thing it also means ur kit will lose it's specilness. I think you will be more happy with a TT kit also becuase of the fact the engine is not getting constently boosted so ur gas milige will not be so dirmatically effect. With ur torque converter when u break torque a lounch u will already be near were the boost is going to be started so u wont notice much lag time. Plus trubos will yeald more HP. And in conclusion turbos are bad ***
