I'm trying to free up a weekend to go down to ZPI's shop for the tune, etc. I can't wait to be rollin with higher boost!

We are going tomorrow, but not for a dyno run. We are going to get that little flapper welded...once and for all..
Funny thing is, people liked the way it ..TICKED..

I will see what I can do. I asked Keisha to schedule me a dyno pull. At this time they were suppose to be recalibrating it or something, so I don't know exactly WHEN I will be able to get strapped in. However, the numbers are not going to be the same even at the current PSI level, due to the tune being only a STREET tune. I will probably post up the 8 PSI #'s from a Dyno tune, and then crank to 10 PSI and a 10 PSI tune with #'s to boot. We will push a little over 300whp before the year end, and then come spring, I'll run it at 350-400whp and be good for some time.

HIT so hard as in, turbo Spooling...Not GOBS of HP! For example. If one car has say 400whp, but has some major turbo lag to get to it, he might not EVER spin the wheels on the rollers. Then you have another car who has a quick spool but not as much hp, and his/her turbo hits really abrupt, I don't see why it would not be a possibility to do so.
At the same time, I was trying to tell you my experience. It was something I was trying to share with you. Everyone turned it into a "theoritical" debate on wether or not I was telling the truth, to which I was. Everyone who questioned it, started seeking the answer as to WHY they spun. I only gave one Educated logical guess as to why, and it turned into this charade.
Truth be told, there could have been a NUMBER of reasons as to why they spun. Could have been a Collection of Reasons. BUT that does not change my experience now does it?

That is not saying we have MAD power! He simply stated that he didn't think the guy was expecting the car to have that much power! By "that much" or "hit hard" doesn't imply we think the car has extreme power! If that were the case Travis would have lied about it putting out 250hp. You're putting words into peoples mouths!

Stop lying...
Never dyno confirmed/said I was pushin 300whp. But I am in the 300whp club, so that give me enough credit to claim 300whp. Nothing that a few clicks of the boost *** doesn't fix...

Hey Rythm, what size is that ZPI turbo. From the way you talk about it spooling and Ive seen your videos on youtube. It seem like its a T3 because it looks like you have almost no lag at all. And Ive heard from a few people that the T3/T4 from the turbonetics has a little turbo lag that makes the speed suffer.

its just sickening how the drama went on for a few more posts. everyone was just giving their input on why the dyno graph was messed up how it was...
travis, just get your money back man and drive to ZPI and get a better graph

I'm spooling faster than a T3/T4 setup from Tnetics from my understanding. Big EVO III 16G is what comes equipped on ZPI kits. I don't know anything about lag unless I'm in like 5th at 40 mph and mash the gas....
But I never drive like that...lol..down shift, mash and dash..

Funny thing is, people liked the way it ..TICKED.. That... flapper... drives... me... NUTS... I think me and you are the only two that have the same thing. It becomes intermitten after the car heats up right...
I think the only way to find it, is to disassemble and tinker around to find that part, and weld it. Which is what I will be doing after Nopi probably. Tear down all to search for a needle in a hay stack...
