FAQ

Turbo kits

  1. With what years and models is your kit compatible?

    2006 SI Coupe
    2007 SI Sedan, Coupe
    2008 SI Sedan, Coupe

  2. What is the cost and turnaround time for an installation?

    $1200 and 2 days to do the installation.

  3. How much boost do I need in order to get 376 horsepower?

    8.5 psi with the Hondata reflash

  4. What else do you recommend that I get with the kit?

    The Hondata reflash is required unless you want to try your own tuning solution, such as the AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller.

    The fuel return kit is an external fuel pressure regulator that supplies the additional fuel to the engine when you increase the boost and step on the accelerator. We sell this but a competent performance shop should be able to build one for you.

    3″ exhaust - get more power.

  5. Does your turbo kit run on stock internals?

    Yes. Our kit gives you up to 376whp on stock internals alone.

  6. What size are the injectors?

    650cc

  7. Does your kit require 93 octane fuel?

    No. It runs fine on 91 octane.

  8. How can I get 510 whp like you guys did?

    Building your motor and adding the AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller.

    The Hondata reflash has an 8.5 psi boost limit. The AEM FIC extends the maximum to the limits of your motor. For stock motors, that would be around 11 psi and fully-built motors would be around 25 psi.

  9. How soon do you ship your kit after I pay for it?

    We ship the kit within 4 weeks.

  10. Any discounts if i get my own parts?

    Yes, we can sell you the parts for the kit but the drawback would be that you would have to get your own tuning. From a liability standpoint, we can only sell you the Hondata reflash with a complete kit.

    So if you’re adventurous and want to try your hand at tuning, we’ll be happy to sell the rest of the kit. The AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller works with our kit.

    But if you are not up to self-tuning, we advise you to buy the entire kit so that you can get the Hondata reflash.

  11. Do you offer the turbo kit for an automatic transmission?

    No

  12. Do you offer financing?

    No.

  13. Is your turbo kit approved for my state inspection?

    We do not track which states have approved our kit. However, we can check to see if any of our customers live in your state. We are not CARB compliant.

  14. Would you be willing to sponsor my vehicle?

    We are not considering any sponsorships at this time.

  15. What do you have planned for your car?

    We plan to push it beyond 510 whp.

  16. At what track do you run your car?

    Moroso Motorsports Park

  17. Do you accept trade-ins of old non-AJP turbo kits?

    No. The liability of making sure the parts are fully functional before selling them is too high. We do not want our company name and reputation associated with non-AJP turbo kits. eBay is your best bet.

Hondata reflash

  1. Do you reflash the ECU?

    No. You send your ECU directly to Hondata. They will reflash your ECU and send it back to you.

  2. Do I need the Hondata reflash for the turbo kit?

    No, you can use whatever tuning you want - AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller, Greddy e-Manage Ultimate, Haltech, Motech, etc. However, our experience is that the turbo kit runs best with the Hondata reflash.

  3. What is the turnaround time for the reflash?

    A total of 3 business days. You send the ecu via overnight shipping to Hondata on Business Day 1. Ecu arrives at Hondata on Business Day 2 and is reflashed and shipped out via overnight shipping. You receive it on Business Day 3. So if you send it out Monday, you can expect to receive it Wednesday.

    You are free to send it to Hondata with any shipping you want. Hondata sends an ecu out via overnight shipping or 3-day shipping.

  4. Do you offer a Hondata reflash for more than 8.5 psi?

    No. However, AJP has researched the AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller enough to recommend its use for extending boost levels beyond 8.5 psi.

  5. Do you offer a Hondata ECU reflash for your AJP R18 kit?

    We were informed by Hondata in December 2007 that one is coming. However, no further information has come from them since then.

  6. Can I send my ECU straight to Hondata?

    Yes, just send us the serial numbers from the ECU (near the barcode). We will notify Hondata of your shipment.

    If you bought the kit from somebody else, please supply us with the seller’s identification, so that we can transfer ownership to you. You should do this before sending your unit to Hondata.

  7. What is a reflash?

    A reflash is a reconfiguration of the ecu using special electronic equipment. The ecu is removed from the vehicle, reflashed (either on-site or another location) and then returned to the vehicle. Reflashing does not alter the outside of the unit in any way.

  8. Can I get the reflash now and the turbo kit later?

    You can by paying for the reflash and 50% of the turbo kit up front.

    However, your car will lose significant performance until you install the turbo kit because the reflash is tuned for big injectors and other factors.

AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller

  1. How are you using the AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller?

    We use it on top of the Hondata reflash. It provides two advantages:

    1. It raises the boost cut level. With the Hondata reflash alone, the boost cut is 8.5 psi. If you experience a boost spike, your car will go into “limp mode”, which is annoying. The FIC allows you to increase the boost up to the limit of your motor (we recommend 11 psi).

    2. You get more horsepower because you can raise the boost above the stock 8.5 psi.

  2. Can I use the AEM F/IC without the Hondata reflash?

    Yes, but according to limited customer feedback, we found that it does not work well without the reflash.

Shipping

  1. Do you ship your kit?

    Yes. It is a bolt-on kit which you or a competent shop can install.
