Greddy Twin-Turbo In Development

Buddy Revell

Welcome to the official GReddy USA blog: 20Gs for the IT 370Z!

I wonder if they read the forums? If they don't, maybe they should, to gauge interest in a product before doing the R&D.

They should read the thread about what 370z owners want for forced induction.

Based on members that visit this forum, and I think this is the largest 370z fan site, 75% of the of people want a supercharger.

Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't Greddy in bankruptcy protection?

According to their site, they're out: Greddy - Founded and Driven by Racers

t-ray

I don't have any hard metrics to back this up - but I've followed the FM/VQ35 scene for about 5 years now, and the greddy kit easily had the majority of the forced induction market for the g35/350z.

Looks like support for this platform is really ramping up. I'd like to see how this compares to the GTM product.

i love the 20g turbo.. had one on my GSX and ran high 11's on stock motor with that baby! ran a couple different turbo on the car and the 20g was by far the best.

Yeeaaaaahhhh... no firm is going to tell you they're hurting financially. If you buy that, then your stocks are going to plummet.

+ If I'm correct, Greddy doesn't make superchargers...

Bobba Booey

They have a supercharger kit for the Scion XB.



Greddy - Founded and Driven by Racers

I think they will make a turbo kit for the Z34. More power potential and their kit for the Z33 was one of the most popular kits.

I think the 370z is drawing a different target audience. I would have never bought a 350z. The 370z is lower, wider, shorter and has bigger tires, more power, more upscale interior, and is a higher priced fully optioned car yet more track oriented. The 370z is pulling Corvette buyers, Cayman buyers, 911 buyers, M3 buyers, RS4 buyers, GTR buyers. It's a different crowd. The polling numbers here suggest 75% want a supercharger kit to 25% that want a turbo kit.

Likewise, I am more impressed by a completely linear, tractable powerband from a SC kit that makes 400whp for 100k miles than I am by TT 611whp kit on a 94 octane tune that goes until it blows up. TT kits are fun to watch. Cool for someone else to own. But not for me. I don't have any Fast and Furious delusions that I am trying to live out.

I think it's great that 2 TT kits are on the market and a 3rd is coming. But, I'm trying to point out that from a simple economics standpoint that more money is to be made by the first company to get a SC kit to market and that more people should be putting their R&D dollars there.

Bobba, thanks for the correction...at any rate I think 370 owners might have a better shot with the likes of Stillen and prehaps Vortech making an SC for the car before Greddy.

That being said, I do generally agree with what Phimosis is saying - the market is much better for a SC than a TT kit especially at the prices we're seeing.

I'm actually interested to see what GReddy comes up with. I'm most likely going to get a supercharger if I ever go the F/I route, but more options on the market never hurt anyone right?

I agree 100% with what Phimosis has said in this thread though.
